| Obverse description | Color-printed effigy of Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah facing slightly left, depicted in traditional golden Bruneian ceremonial attire and wearing a songkok adorned with a royal insignia, his chest bearing a row of military and state decorations. The portrait occupies the central field of the octagonal flan against a dark background. The legend SULTAN HAJI HASSANAL BOLKIAH curves along the upper periphery in raised Latin letters. Below the effigy, the Sultan's royal cipher appears in Arabic script in the lower field. |

| Additional information |
Brunei held the ASEAN chairmanship in 2013, a rotating role that brought with it the hosting of both the ASEAN Summit and related ministerial meetings in Bandar Seri Begawan. Commemorative issues tied to ASEAN chairmanships are a well-established practice among member states, though Brunei's output remains modest compared to larger economies in the bloc. At 31.11 grams in copper-nickel, the specification deliberately mirrors a troy ounce — a weight more commonly associated with silver bullion — lending the piece a substantive feel without the precious metal cost.
