Rama VIII — King Ananda Mahidol — died on 9 June 1946 under circumstances that remain officially unresolved: a single gunshot wound to the head, found in his bedchamber at the Grand Palace. He was nineteen. This note was issued posthumously, weeks after his death, making the portrait simultaneously a debut and a memorial. Three palace attendants were eventually executed for the killing in 1955, though the verdict has never satisfied historians.
Tudor Press was an unusual choice for Thai currency — the contract reflected wartime disruptions to established relationships with European printers. The "American" designation in the series name distinguishes these from the British-printed issues of the same type.
