This definitive stamp features a portrait of Ismail Nasiruddin of Terengganu, who was the Yang di-Pertuan Agong (King) of Malaysia at the time. The design is part of a larger series showcasing the rulers and coats of arms of the various Malaysian states, symbolizing the nation's federal monarchy system.

Issued in 1965, this series followed the formation of Malaysia in 1963 and was one of the first definitive sets to represent all the states of the new federation.
