Obverse description Right-facing draped bust of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, depicted as the first portrait effigy used on Brunei coinage. The legend encircling the portrait reads 'SULTAN HASSANAL BOLKIAH' without the numeral 'I' following the title, a distinguishing feature of this earlier type. The portrait is rendered in a refined, medallic style, attributed to engraver Christopher Ironside. The field is plain, with the legend positioned along the upper periphery.
