| Aversbeschreibung | The denomination '10 CENTS' is rendered in large numerals at the centre of the field, flanked on the left and lower left by two gracefully curving stalks of paddy with detailed grain heads, a motif emblematic of Singapore's agricultural heritage. The circular legend 'SINGAPORE' arcs along the right side of the coin, with the date '1981' positioned at the upper left, completing the inscription. The design is set against a deeply mirrored proof field, highlighting the finely struck relief of the paddy stalks. |

| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse features a finely detailed high-relief depiction of a crowned seahorse (Hippocampus coronatus) occupying the central field, its characteristic spiny coronet and articulated body segments rendered with great naturalistic precision. The creature is shown in profile, oriented upward, surrounded by stylised aquatic vegetation including fan-like sea grasses and coral fronds that fill the field. The deeply mirrored proof surfaces accentuate the sculptural quality of the design, which was engraved by Stuart Devlin. No legend or inscription appears on the reverse, allowing the marine motif to dominate the composition entirely. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Singapore's proof coinage program through the early 1980s was aimed squarely at the collector market as the city-state's Mint sought to establish itself as a regional prestige minting authority — a deliberate policy decision following full monetary separation from Malaysia in 1967. The 1981 issue was part of an annual proof set program that drew heavily on overseas buyers and the growing Southeast Asian numismatic market.
KM#3a distinguishes this silver proof from the circulation strikes in cupro-nickel, a separate designation reflecting the changed composition rather than a design revision.
