Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the ½ Cent George V 1932 coin from Straits Settlements (British Malaysia) is that it features a unique blend of Eastern and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin bears the image of King George V, while the reverse side features a traditional Malay kris, or dagger, surrounded by foliage and the coin's denomination. This blending of cultural motifs reflects the rich history and diversity of the Straits Settlements, which were a British colonial territory in Southeast Asia that consisted of Singapore, Malacca, and Penang.
