==== Issue 5 – 1888 ==== [[File:Administrative Division of Rattanakosin Kingdom in 1882.jpg|thumb|Siam at the time of coin issue 5 (1888)]] This was a minor issue, in which the lesser denominations' designs were updated to incorporate the three-parted{{clarify|date=April 2025}} shield into the design. This copper coin was produced to replace previous versions and was minted in England, with additional production by the Royal Mint of Thailand.<ref>เหรียญทองแดง พระบรมรูป - ตราพระสยามเทวาธิราช | กรมธนารักษ์. กรมธนารักษ์ : The Treasury Department. Published 2024. Accessed December 20, 2024. <nowiki>https://www.treasury.go.th/th/coin-k5-3/</nowiki></ref> In this issue, depending on where the coin was minted, the minting alignment was different.
