Malaysian ringgit banknotes and coins

One Malaysian ringgit (RM) can be subdivided into 100 sen.

There are six denominations of Malaysian ringgit banknotes in frequent circulation: RM 1, RM 5, RM 10, RM 20, RM 50 and RM 100; and four coin denominations: 5 sen, 10 sen, 20 sen and 50 sen.

Spanish dollars were used in Malaysia back when it was a Portuguese colony. The Malays of the time would refer to the irregular-shaped Spanish coins as 'ringgits' which means 'jagged ones', and this is how the Malaysian ringgit got its name.
