| Obverse description | Central device features the Royal Crown (Phra Maha Phichai Mongkut) rising from a tiered lotus-petal base and surmounted by radiating rays of glory, symbolizing royal authority. Flanking the crown on either side stands a multi-tiered Royal Umbrella (Chatra) mounted on a ceremonial stand, each rendered in high relief with fine architectural detail. The composition is symmetrically arranged within a beaded inner border, with the smooth field providing a mirror-like proof surface. No legends appear on this side; the design relies entirely on the royal regalia to convey dynastic identity. |

| Reverse description | Central motif depicts a standing elephant within a Chakra (dharmic wheel), rendered in detailed relief against a smooth proof field. Eight six-pointed stars are evenly distributed around the Chakra, each star representing one Fueang, with eight Fueang collectively equating to one Baht, thereby encoding the denomination symbolically into the design. The composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border. No textual legends appear on this face; the numismatic symbolism of the stars serves as the sole denomination indicator. |
