| Additional information |
Thailand's shift to copper-plated steel for small-denomination coinage in the mid-2000s was driven by a sustained rise in global base metal prices that made the earlier brass compositions more expensive to mint than the coins' face value. The 50 satang piece was effectively a rounding unit by this point — retail pricing conventions had long since rendered it nearly invisible in everyday commerce.
