| Additional information |
Thailand issued this coin to mark the United Nations' International Year of Disabled Persons, which was formally designated 1981 — meaning this 1983 strike came two years after the observance it commemorates. That lag was not unusual for Thai commemorative silver of the period; the Royal Thai Mint frequently produced issues tied to UN or royal occasions well after the fact, often to satisfy collector demand rather than to mark the event in real time.
