Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 10 Cents Charles V. Brooke Rajah coin from Sarawak (British Malaysia) is that it was minted during a time of great change in the region. The coin was issued in 1920, just a few years after the end of World War I, and during a period of increasing nationalism and anti-colonial sentiment in Malaysia. Despite these changes, the coin still bears the image of Charles V. Brooke, the second White Rajah of Sarawak, who ruled the region from 1868 to 1917. This coin is a tangible reminder of the complex history and cultural exchange that took place in the region during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
