| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central design features the royal Mongkut crown (the tiered ceremonial crown of the Chakri dynasty) resting on a lotus-flower pedestal, flanked on either side by a tiered royal spire (busabok) atop an ornate stand with elephant-head supports. Radiating rays emanate from the apex of the central crown toward the upper portion of the field. The entire composition is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a reeded outer rim, rendered in fine relief characteristic of a proof pattern striking. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This pattern was struck in 1869 as part of a broader modernization push by Chulalongkorn — Rama V — who was still a teenager at the time and operating under a regency council. Thailand was under considerable pressure from European colonial powers, and adopting Western-style coinage was a deliberate diplomatic signal, not merely a monetary reform. The medal alignment, unusual for Siamese issues of the period, suggests European die-cutting involvement, most likely from the Birmingham trade.
