Agro Based Products State Definitives: Denomination in sen

Agro-based product state definitive stamps have the most number of varieties in terms of perforation, watermark and gum type. Starting in 2002, some of these agro-based product state definitive were printed in denomination of "sen" instead of "c". This has contributed further to the existing varieties for these state definitives. However, only a few states (Wilayah Persekutuan, Pulau Pinang, Kedah, Selangor, Pahang and Johor) released this new variety, and most of them were recorded for the denomination 30 sen. Only Wilayah Persekutuan has four denominations with "sen" i.e. 5 sen, 10 sen, 20 sen and 30 sen. The other five states (Pulau Pinang, Kedah, Selangor, Pahang and Johor) produced only 30 sen stamps........ Well, when you scroll down this page, you may notice that the 30 sen Johor is not there.......... because I have not yet owned one :(
