Beschrijving voorzijde Bare-headed effigy of King Savang Vatthana in right-facing profile, wearing a decorated military collar. Below the portrait, a central device depicts a three-headed elephant bearing a parasol, flanked symmetrically by two ceremonial lamp standards, all raised on a horizontal platform. The legend ROYAUME DU LAOS arcs along the right field in Latin script, while a Lao-script inscription curves along the left field. The coin is struck in proof style with deeply mirrored fields contrasting with frosted devices.

Aanvullende informatie

This issue occupies an uncomfortable place in Lao numismatic history. Struck in 1975, it was authorized under the Royal Lao Government just months before the Pathet Lao takeover in December of that year abolished the monarchy entirely — ending over six centuries of the Lane Xang succession and forcing King Savang Vatthana into internal exile, where he died under house arrest, likely in a re-education camp in Vieng Xai. The Banque Nationale du Laos that issued it ceased to exist shortly after.

Coins from this final royal series were largely unsold and unissued in Laos itself, surviving primarily through export channels to the collector market.
