Series Overview
SAS stands for Sultan Ahmad Shah, the Sultan of Pahang, and the series was released in September 2014 to mark the 40th anniversary of his reign. The letters had originally been set aside for Sabah, where SA is a registration prefix, but were given to Pahang for the jubilee.
The series was released in early September 2014, and a Kuala Lumpur businessman bought SAS 1545 on the first day of bidding. SAS was one of the first royal commemorative series, a model later followed by SMS for the Sultan of Kedah in 2017, SIS for the Sultan of Selangor in 2025 and VIPS for the Raja of Perlis in 2025.
