Additional information

Issued to mark Thailand's hosting of the 43rd WIPO Assemblies meeting in Bangkok, this coin commemorates a gathering that drew delegates from over 180 member states to negotiate intellectual property frameworks — an unusual subject for a circulating-weight commemorative from Southeast Asia. Thailand joined WIPO in 1989, nearly two decades after the organization's 1967 founding convention.
