Singapore's Lunar New Year commemorative series has been issued annually since 1981, making it one of the longest-running sovereign lunar coin programs in the world. The Year of the Dog falls on a twelve-year cycle, and the 2015 issue marks the series well into its fourth decade of production — a stretch long enough that early issues from the 1980s now trade at multiples of face value among regional collectors.
