| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold, sculpted depiction of the Merlion — Singapore's iconic lion-headed civic emblem — shown in a seated, upright posture facing left, with elaborately stylised mane and body rendered in high relief. The creature is flanked on either side by tall, naturalistic sprays of wheat or paddy ears that frame the composition symmetrically. The background field is deeply mirrored, contrasting sharply with the frosted sculptural detail of the central device. No legend or inscription appears on the reverse, allowing the heraldic motif to dominate the design in the manner characteristic of Stuart Devlin's proof coinage work for Singapore. |
