| Beschrijving keerzijde | The large numeral 20 dominates the central field, enclosed within a twisted rope border tied at the base with a decorative reef knot. The date appears above the rope circle at the top of the field. The word TWENTY arcs along the left side of the rope border and CENTS along the right side, both reading outward within the field. The Heaton mint mark H appears below the knot at the bottom, and the whole design is contained within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Charles Brooke, the second White Rajah of Sarawak, inherited the territory from his uncle James in 1868 and maintained it as a private dynastic state — one of the stranger political entities in British imperial history. Sarawak was never a Crown colony; the Brooke family ruled as sovereign rajahs, which gave them full authority to issue their own coinage independent of London.
The .800 fineness on this series was a deliberate choice to align with the Straits Settlements silver standard, facilitating trade across the regional economy without creating an arbitrage problem with purer silver issues.
