Aversbeschreibung	The obverse is struck in the form of the iconic Singapore Merlion, with the coin shaped to follow the contours of the mythical creature's body. At the centre of the fish-scaled lower body, a circular recessed field bears the Samoan state coat of arms, flanked by the inscriptions '2023 SAMOA' above and '2 DOLLARS' below. The Merlion's lion head is rendered in high relief, with finely detailed mane and open jaws, while the scalloped fish tail and body scales are executed with meticulous engraving. The overall silhouette faithfully replicates the celebrated Merlion statue, a national symbol of Singapore.

Reversbeschreibung	The reverse, shaped to mirror the Merlion silhouette, features a highly detailed aerial cartographic map of Singapore engraved across the entire field, with selective blue enamel highlighting the island's waterways and coastal areas. A finely sculpted three-dimensional orchid blossom — referencing Singapore's national flower, the Vanda Miss Joaquim — is depicted in high relief at the upper portion of the design. The legend 'SINGAPORE' is inscribed in the central field. The combination of intricate map engraving, vibrant enamel colour, and sculptural floral motif creates a striking and layered composition celebrating Singapore's identity.

Zusätzliche Informationen	The "2 Dollars Singapore" branding places this squarely within a well-established category of collector issues struck under Samoan authority but themed for the international numismatic market — a licensing arrangement that has nothing to do with Singaporean monetary policy and everything to do with the favorable minting and legal-tender framework Samoa offers to private bullion and commemorative programs. KM# 435 is a modern allocated issue. One troy ounce of .999 silver, Samoan legal tender by technicality.
