The issuer's name 'STRAITS SETTLEMENTS' appears in the upper legend along the periphery, while the denomination 'FIVE CENTS' and the date '1920' are inscribed in the lower legend, separated from the issuer name by small ornamental dashes at either side. |

The 1920 Straits Settlements 5-cent was among the first copper-nickel issues for the colony, replacing the earlier silver fractional coinage as part of a broader wartime and post-war drive to conserve silver across British colonial mints. The transition was not universally welcomed — silver coins retained strong local preference in the region, where metal content carried real commercial weight in trade communities.
KM#34 was struck at the Calcutta and Bombay mints during this period, identifiable by mint marks on individual pieces.
