Date: 1942-1944
Market Value: RM5-RM10
Banana money is an informal term given to a type of currency issued by Imperial Japan during the Japanese occupation of Singapore, Malaya, North Borneo and Sarawak and Brunei, and was named as such because of the motifs of banana trees on 10 dollar banknotes.

It was in widespread use within the occupied territories where the previous currency became a scarcity. The currency were referred to as “dollars” and “cents” like its predecessors, the Straits dollar and Malayan dollar.

*Market value RM150-180*
The 1 Ringgit coin was introduced in to the Malaysian market in 1971. The 1 Ringgit coin initially used the dollar sign “$1” and was later changed to 1 Ringgit in 1993. These 1 Ringgit coins were later demonetised on 7th December 2005 and withdrawn from the market.

Since there were duplicate values of this denomination in the form of coin and banknote, people generally preferred the banknote as compared to the coins. That comes as a no brainer, coins were cumbersome to lug around as compared to having lighter banknotes in their wallets.

On top of that, some sources claim that these coins were easier to forge as compared to printed bank notes. However, Bank Negara had denied all such allegations and while there were few isolated cases of forgery, it was definitely not widespread.

Despite the coin being demonetized, the coin carries value in the collector's market. Though its resale value is not as high as the 1 sen coins, the 1 Ringgit coins still fetch a good return of up to RM 180. Collectors claim it is difficult to get genuine ones as there were fake coins in the market and could possibly the reason why its value did not skyrocket the way the 1 sen coins did.
