Issued to mark the 72nd birthday of King Bhumibol Adulyadej on 5 December 1999, this note is one of several commemorative 1000 Baht issues produced by the Bank of Thailand Note Printing Works during the reign — a facility established in 1969 specifically to reduce Thailand's dependence on foreign printers for sensitive currency production. The 72nd birthday held particular significance in Thai numerological tradition, as it marks the completion of six full twelve-year astrological cycles, a threshold considered more auspicious than a simple centennial.
Pick 104 circulated as legal tender alongside the regular 1000 Baht series, not as a collector-only issue.
