| Reverse description | Central device comprising the royal cipher of Princess Srinagarindra rendered as an interlaced monogram within a stylised flame motif, boldly raised against a mirrored proof field. A curved Thai-script legend arcs along the upper periphery commemorating the 108th anniversary of the royal birth. Along the lower arc, the denomination '๑๖๐๐๐ บาท' (16,000 Baht) flanks the monogram, with the issuing country 'ประเทศไทย' (Thailand) to the right and the date '๒๑ ตุลาคม ๒๕๕๒' (21 October 2009) at the base, accompanied by small floral ornaments as field dividers. The entire design is enclosed by a beaded border. |

| Additional information |
Issued to mark the 108th anniversary of Princess Srinagarindra's birth, this coin honors the woman known in Thailand as the Princess Mother — mother of both Rama VIII and the long-reigning Rama IX. The face value of 16,000 Baht reflects a traditional Thai numerological convention in royal commemorative issues, where denomination is set symbolically rather than for any practical monetary purpose. These pieces were never intended for circulation.
