Singapore's Lunar New Year collector series, administered by MAS, ran alongside the broader regional trend of official bullion and base-metal commemoratives that accelerated across Southeast Asia in the 1990s. The 2004 issue marks the Year of the Monkey in the 12-year cycle — the ninth animal in the sequence — a year associated in Chinese tradition with wit and adaptability. These copper-nickel pieces were sold directly through MAS and selected banks, not released into general circulation, which accounts for the consistently high surviving grades across the series.
