Extract

My esteemed friend Mr. Henry G. Scott, Director of the local Royal Department of Mines and Geology, who had just returned from a tour of inspection of the mining districts in the Malay Peninsula, sent to me for examination two small gold coins which he had obtained in the course of his tour. They were found, together with a considerable number of similar coins, by some people who had occasion to dig a hole in the grounds of a Siamese Wat (Buddhist monastery) in the province of Jaring, near Patani. This was more than a year ago. Jaring is a Malay state, but has a large Siamese population which is comparatively modern.
