Thailand's commemorative banknote program has produced dozens of special issues since the 1990s, and this 100 Baht marks Queen Sirikit's 72nd birthday in 2004 — her sixth cycle by the Thai lunar reckoning, a numerologically significant threshold in Buddhist tradition that warranted formal state commemoration. The Canadian Bank Note Company in Ottawa has been a recurring supplier to the Bank of Thailand across multiple commemorative series.
The watermark is the sole listed security feature, modest even by 2004 standards for a commemorative issue.
