Malaysia banknotes: The most beautiful $5 ringgit

Malaysia don't have many design of banknote or coin. From 1967 until today, Malaysia $5 ringgit banknote only have 4 different design. Which one do you think the most beautiful $5 ringgit design?

For me Malaysia most beautiful $5 Paper money is the design of 5th series $5 ringgit banknote. It started been circulated on 16 january 1984 until 1985. It signed by Malaysia central bank governor Tan Sri Abdul Aziz bin Haji Taha. The short period of circulation is because it have some religious issue and people asked to stop the circulation. Is this true?

On the obverse is the potrait of the first DYMM Seri Paduka Baginda Yang Dipertuan Agong, Tuanku Abdul Rahman. The overall is based on ''kain songket'' design. On the reverse is the official palace for first DYMM Seri Paduka Baginda Yang Dipertuan Agong, istana negara. On the top is a design taken from silver ring ornaments used by kadazan ethnic in sabah. At the lower right corner is a spray of morning glory flower Ipomea Calriea.
