| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Balestier" dollar takes its name from Joseph Balestier, America's first consul to Singapore, appointed in 1836 — a figure better remembered today for the Balestier Road district than for any diplomatic achievement. This coin belongs to Singapore's third portrait series, which replaced the long-running animal series in 1985 and drew on local historical figures to assert a distinctly Singaporean civic identity rather than the colonial or natural-history imagery of earlier issues.
Copper-nickel dollars of this series saw heavy vending machine use, and worn examples dominate surviving circulation stock.
