| Reverse description | The centre of the bimetallic reverse features the royal cypher of King Rama X (Vajiralongkorn), rendered as an ornate Thai decorative monogram surmounted by a tiered spired crown with radiating rays above, all executed in high relief against a plain field. The copper-nickel outer ring carries the legend in Thai script along the upper arc reading 'Thailand' and the Buddhist Era date, with the denomination expressed both in Thai numerals and Arabic numerals along the lower arc, flanking the Thai word for Baht. |

| Additional information |
Rama X — King Vajiralongkorn — ascended the throne in December 2016 following the death of his father Bhumibol Adulyadej, but Thai law required a one-year mourning period before official royal imagery could be circulated on currency. The 2018 start date on this series reflects that delay, with the Royal Thai Mint retooling its bimetallic production to introduce the new portrait across the 10 Baht denomination already in wide daily use.
