| Additional information |
Issued to mark the elevation of Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn to the title Somdej Phra Thep Ratana Ratchasuda in December 1977 — a rank conferring the designation Kromphra Yuwamarat, making her the first princess in the Chakri dynasty to hold full "Royal" status. The decision reflected Bhumibol's intent to formally recognize Sirindhorn's role at a moment when succession questions within the Thai royal family carried real political weight.
