| Aanvullende informatie |
The British North Borneo Chartered Company was granted its royal charter in 1881, making it one of the last chartered companies in history to exercise sovereign administrative powers over a territory. It governed what is now the Malaysian state of Sabah directly, collecting taxes, maintaining courts, and issuing its own coinage — this cent among the first struck under that authority. The company contracted minting to Heaton's Birmingham facility, which supplied most of British North Borneo's coinage throughout the charter period.
The 1882 date marks the inaugural year of company coinage. Issues from the earliest years of the series command a measurable premium over later dates.
