In the northern states of Peninsular Malaysia, denominations of 10 sen are called kupang in Northern Malay and called pua̍t (鏺/鈸) in Penang Hokkien which is thought to be derived from the Thai word baht.

The Malay names ringgit and sen were officially adopted as the sole official names in 28 August 1975.
