| Additional information |
Issued to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Royal Institute of Thailand — the body responsible for standardizing the Thai language and its orthography since 1942 — this coin was part of a broader pattern under Rama IX of using commemorative coinage to legitimize and celebrate cultural institutions that had, in practice, operated under royal patronage throughout his reign.
