Thailand 2 Baht - Rama IX Y#444 [solved]

I am requesting information about this coin type and possibly some changes.

I concur with the comment that the coin was first issued in 2005(2548) however there is a listing for this coin for 2004(2547). This would seem impossible, so why is that year listed? Shouldn't it be removed?

I also concur that the 2007(2550) was the lowest minted year as I have only ever seen 1 from that year in the past 15 months. The mintage is listed at over 232,000,000 for that year. There is a problem there as the 2005(2548) is listed with a mintage of 60,000,000. If 2007 had the lowest mintage then the number should be less than 60 million. My personal estimate for 2007 is 15,000,000 or less judging on the availability of other coins in common change with similar mintage numbers. If the only information available is from coinscan then shouldn't this be more thoroughly researched? Even on their website they ask for corrected information if people have it available.

The comments from the last paragraph make me question about a 2009(2552) being listed. This does not make sense as 2009 was the second year that the new brass colored 2 baht coins(Y#445) were minted and used. I have never seen any examples or photos of a 2009 Y#444. Is this why the coin is so mysterious? Here again if the only source of information is coinscan then shouldn't there be some other evidence to warrant keeping the listing? I checked the Royal Canadian Mint website and found no evidence other than that they have made coins for Thailand.

Anyone on the website know anything about modern Thai coins? I can't believe I'm the only one who knows anything and what I know is next to nothing.

There are three points in this thread, so I will address them accordingly, although not chronologically.

1) The 2004 year-line has been deleted.

3) With a mintage of (supposedly) 50,370, I could definitely see 2009 being extremely hard to find. There should be around a 0.013% chance of finding on in circulation, if they truely do exist. However, it appears someone (who was not me) deleted that year-line, so... nothing much to do here anymore, I guess.

4) Interesting observation. I would assume that website retrieved those numbers from the Royal Mint... somehow. In the older anual reports, the mint had a table for coins struck in a specific year, as well as a separate table for coins struck with the date of that year. I am not sure how they release their foriegn-coin data, but a possible explaination I can think of is that there were, in fact, 232,105,100 coins struck in 2007, but the vast majority were actually dated 2006.

Here are how many people claim to own each year-line (as of posting this):
2005: 442 people.
2006: 1206 people.
2007: 188 people.

Obviously, for a mintage of (supposedly) 107,872,500, 2006 is quite high compared to the other two. But if most 2007-struck coins were dated 2006, that would explain both the overly-high number of 2006s and the overly-low number of 2007s.

I will submit a request to add that possible explaination to the comments (and to see what the referee thinks)

The comment for point 2 has been added.
