Interesting fact
The 1993 Brunei 1 Dollar coin featuring the 2nd portrait of Hassanal Bolkiah is unique in that it has a mistake in the Arabic inscription on the reverse side. The word "Khalifa" which means "Caliph" in Arabic, was mistakenly engraved as "Khalefa" which means "dictator" or "tyrant" in Arabic. This error was corrected in later mintages of the coin, making the 1993 version with the mistake a sought-after collector's item.
