| Additional information |
Issued to mark the centenary of Malayan Railway, the state rail operator tracing its origins to the first line opened between Taiping and Port Weld in 1885. The commemorative program coincided with a period of significant restructuring for Keretapi Tanah Melayu Berhad, which was in the process of being reorganized under a new operating concession framework that would separate infrastructure ownership from train operations — a process that formally concluded in 2010, the same year of issue.
Nordic gold, a copper-aluminum-zinc-tin alloy developed in the early 1990s, was chosen by numerous central banks for commemorative and circulation issues specifically because it resists tarnishing better than brass.
