The "Agong XII" designation refers to Syed Sirajuddin ibni Almarhum Tuanku Syed Putra Jamalullail, the twelfth Yang di-Pertuan Agong, who served as Malaysia's constitutional monarch from 2001 to 2006. Malaysia's coinage has traditionally rotated the reigning Agong's effigy, making each reign a distinct numismatic series. The Green Imperial Pigeon — Ducula aenea — is native to Malaysia's coastal and island forests, and its inclusion reflects the wildlife series approach Bank Negara adopted for the sen denominations during this period.
KM#98 saw circulation across only two years before Syed Sirajuddin's reign ended, keeping the production window tight.
