| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field displays a coiled snake rendered in high relief within a raised inner circle, its head facing forward at lower centre with textured, scaled body wrapping in successive loops. Above the snake within the inner circle appear the Chinese characters 巳 (si), denoting the Year of the Snake in the Chinese zodiac. Surrounding the inner circle, arranged along the border of the field, are twelve small relief vignettes representing each animal of the Chinese zodiac cycle, including the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog, and pig. The denomination legend 10 DOLLARS appears in the lower arc of the outer field in Latin characters. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Singapore's Lunar New Year commemorative series began in 1981 with the Year of the Rooster, issued under the Board of Commissioners of Currency before the Monetary Authority of Singapore absorbed those functions. The Snake issue of 1989 falls mid-series, at a point when secondary market demand for the earlier animals had already established a collector premium structure that influenced mintage decisions for subsequent releases.
Copper-nickel strikes were produced alongside silver and gold versions, with the base metal pieces intended primarily for domestic gifting circulation during the lunar holiday.
