| Additional information |
Brunei's first modern coinage was struck in Birmingham by the Heaton Mint under the authority of Sultan Hashim Jalilul Alam Aqamaddin, who reigned from 1885 to 1906 during a period of intensifying British influence — the Residential System was formalized just four years after this coin was issued. The 1888 Protectorate agreement would soon transfer effective control of Brunei's external affairs to Britain entirely.
Mintage was extremely limited, reflecting the small scale of Brunei's cash economy at the time. Most examples encountered today show heavy oxidation consistent with tropical circulation.
