Old banknotes and milestones in Thai banknote production
The first Thai banknotes were issued in 1851 during the reign of Rama IV. Initially, these banknotes were simple paper notes without elaborate designs. An important milestone was the introduction of the baht as the official currency in 1897, replacing the thai. During the 20th century, banknotes underwent significant changes, including the incorporation of royal portraits and improved printing techniques. The series commemorating the 60th anniversary of King Bhumibol Adulyadej's ascension to the throne in 2006 marked another highlight in the history of Thai banknotes.
