| Aanvullende informatie |
James Brooke, the first White Rajah of Sarawak, died in June 1868, but by 1863 the question of succession was already pressing — his nephew Charles was the likely heir, and the Brooke family was quietly consolidating the coinage identity of the territory. Pattern pieces from this period were struck in London as the government tested designs and metals before committing to circulation issues. The brass composition here distinguishes it from the copper that reached commerce.
