| 背面描述 | The large bold numeral '20' above the word CENTS occupies the centre of the coin within a beaded inner circle, the digits filled with fine horizontal engine-turned lines. The peripheral legend COMMISSIONERS OF CURRENCY MALAYA runs around the upper and lateral portions of the field, with the date 1943 appearing at the base flanked by two small decorative rosette stops. A toothed border encloses the entire reverse design. |

Malaya's wartime silver coinage presents a logistical oddity: these pieces were struck in San Francisco and Bombay while the territory they were issued for remained under Japanese occupation. The Commissioners of Currency, operating effectively in exile, authorized production to ensure a functioning monetary supply would be ready the moment liberation came.
The .500 fineness was a deliberate reduction from the prewar .500 standard — actually maintained here — while other Allied administrations were stripping silver from their colonial coinages entirely. San Francisco Mint records from this period show Malayan coinage interleaved with emergency Philippine and Dutch East Indies production, all sharing the same wartime priority scheduling.
