Government of Brunei, essay, $5, ND (1982), hand drawn essay on card, featuring a young Hassanal Bolkiah, the current Sultan of Brunei, sporting colours of green and purple. Usually, Hassanal is viewed on banknotes wearing ceremonial headgear of various descriptions and appears older. Here, the young depiction of the Sultan can be seen without any headgear, suggesting that there was some experimentation in this essay with how he should appear on the face of banknotes
(Unlisted), as made, interesting artistic appearance
