| Obverse description | Draped bust of King Chulalongkorn (Rama V) facing left, depicted as a young monarch in military uniform with decorations and epaulettes rendered in fine relief. The effigy is set within a raised border, with a circular Thai legend inscribed along the upper and lower periphery of the field. The portrait is executed in a naturalistic Western style consistent with European-influenced Siamese coinage of the late nineteenth century. |
