Design
- Obverse
- Inner rim with a kranok (flame-scroll) pattern resembling lion's legs; the upper field has kranok motifs gripping to the left and right. On the left is the Thai numeral denomination "๑"/"๒๐"/"๑๐" (1/20/10); on the right is the abbreviation "ส.ต." (Satang). Below, above a kranok-patterned base, is the inscription "รัฐบาลไทย" (Thai Government).
- Reverse
- Inner rim at the top with a scrolling-stem pattern; below, within a framed circle, is the Buddhist Era year of minting "๒๔๘๔"/"๒๔๘๕" (B.E. 2484/2485, i.e. 1941/1942). Outside the circle is a surrounding pattern of overlapping lotus petals.
