| Additional information |
This dollar belongs to Singapore's Housing and Development Board estate coin series, in which specific public housing precincts were commemorated as the government undertook major urban redevelopment. Jalan Leban and Casuarina Road sit in the Ang Mo Kio planning area, and their inclusion reflects the broader mid-2000s documentation of neighborhoods facing demolition or significant transformation under HDB's selective en bloc redevelopment scheme.
KM#246 is one of dozens of such precinct-named issues, making individual pieces easy to obtain but complete sets genuinely difficult to assemble.
