The Thailand ten-baht coin is a unit of currency of a Thai baht. Like every coin in Thailand, its obverse featured H.M. King Bhumipol Adulyadej, the Great. Its reverse featured Arun Temple seen from Chao Phraya River. The ten-baht coin is also often used as commemorative coin, like both the 50th and 60th Anniversary of Accession to the Throne of King Bhumipol Adulyadej coins.

The ten-baht coin is very similar to the two–euro coin in size, shape and weight and likewise consists of two different alloys. Vending machines that are not equipped with an up-to-date coin-checking system might therefore accept them as €2 coins.
