The Singapore state arms appear at the upper left, with the bilingual title 'SINGAPORE' and multilingual inscriptions across the top in English, Malay, Chinese, and Tamil. At right, an ornate guilloche panel carries the denomination numeral '$2', while commemorative text noting '25 Years of Currency Issue 1967–1992' and the date '12th June 1992' is printed in the lower right quadrant, accompanied by the Minister for Finance signature and the legal tender declaration. |

| Reverse description | The reverse is printed in shades of blue and violet, with a broad guilloche underprint framing a lively intaglio vignette of a Chingay procession. The scene captures a dragon dance troupe and costumed participants in animated movement, with decorative palms and festive regalia extending across the composition. The denomination '$2' appears in the upper left corner, the country name 'SINGAPORE' is inscribed at upper right, and the printer's imprint 'THOMAS DE LA RUE AND COMPANY LIMITED.' is noted at the base of the vignette. |
