Reverse description The reverse features the name of Penang (Prince of Wales Island) rendered in large, elegant Jawi script — ڤولو ڤينڠ (Pulau Pinang) — prominently centered in the open field. The legend is surrounded by a continuous decorative wreath of stylized foliage and floral sprigs that encircles the entire inner field, lending an ornate frame to the Malay inscription. The border is defined by a milled outer rim consistent with the obverse, and the field exhibits the smooth, slightly reflective surface characteristic of a proof striking.
