| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed right-facing effigy of Charles Vyner Brooke, third and last White Rajah of Sarawak, rendered in high relief with fine hair detail. The bust is truncated at the neck and centrally positioned within a toothed inner border of radial milling. The circumferential legend reads C. V. BROOKE RAJAH in the upper arc and SARAWAK in the lower arc, separated by raised dot stops. The overall engraving style is characteristic of early twentieth-century British colonial coinage, with a naturalistic portrait and bold, evenly spaced lettering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Trial pieces from the Sarawak raj are poorly documented, and uniface strikes — showing only the obverse die with a plain or blank reverse — were typically produced to test die alignment, metal flow, or planchet preparation before committing to a full production run. Charles Vyner Brooke had assumed power in 1917 following his father Charles Anthoni's death, and the 1920 coinage represents one of his earliest independent issues. The Royal Mint in London struck Sarawak's coins throughout this period under contract.
