SIAMESE COINS IAPN BOOK PRIZE CEREMONY HELD
E-Sylum readers learned of this award last May, but it's always a good time to give authors their due recognition. This article adds images and some additional information about the First Prize IAPN book award, from the ceremony January 19th 2014 in Bangkok Thailand.

Conducted annually since 1982, the latest IAPN Book Prize Award Ceremony was held on Jan. 19, 2014 in Bangkok Thailand. More than 100 collectors, dealers, enthusiasts and personal friends of the authors attended. IAPN honored Krisadaolarn and Mihailovs for their 271-page reference book entitled Siamese Coins from Funan to the Fifth Reign.
The new book "takes Thai coinage to another level of academics," describes IAPN "The hard cover book is 271 pages, with color images, including graphs and charts discussing the emblems and iconography of Thai coinage. This reference is a definite ‘must have’ for any serious numismatic library." Until Siamese Coins from Funan to the Fifth Reign came along, IAPN notes that very little was published on Thai coinage with the last major reference solely on the subject written some 80 years ago.
