Sulur Kacang
The 'sulur kacang' (pea tendrils) motif featured on the new 50 sen coin is popular among traditional woodcarvers and silversmiths. The motif is drawn from the graceful twists and curls of long bean vines, and can be seen embellishing fine jewellery pieces and boxes, in addition to decorating doorways, window frames and wood paneling in traditional wooden homes. Fine lines in the motif background are part of the security features.

As coin minting technology has advanced for minting the M3S coins, the amount of coin planchets leaving the mint has been drastically reduced. Hence creating an even bigger demand for those that inadvertently do get out.
