25 Sen - Agong XII Asian Elephant

Malaysia's 12th Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Syed Sirajuddin, ascended to the throne in December 2001 following the death of Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah. This coin belongs to the wildlife series that Bank Negara introduced to replace the earlier parliamentary building reverse designs — a deliberate shift toward natural heritage imagery that coincided with successive Agong portrait updates rather than any single reissue campaign. KM#78 saw relatively brief production before the 25 sen denomination was reduced in size and recomposed in 2005.
