Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Baht - Rama IX (Pattern) ND (1972) coin from Thailand features a unique design element - a portrait of King Bhumibol Adulyadej (Rama IX) on the obverse, which was a departure from the traditional depiction of the king's profile on Thai coins. This change in design was a nod to the king's desire to be more accessible and relatable to his people.
