Reverse description A stylized pig rendered in a bold, decorative folk-art manner occupies the central field, depicted in profile trotting to the right with spiral motifs embellishing its haunches and shoulder. The animal is set against a textured background panel composed of repeating geometric patterned elements evoking traditional Chinese decorative art, framed within a rectangular border design. The denomination $2 appears in the lower left field, while the Chinese cyclical year designation 丁亥 is inscribed to the lower right, identifying the year of the Pig in the traditional sexagenary cycle.

Additional information

Singapore's lunar series coins were issued by MAS as legal tender but function almost entirely as collectibles — circulation examples are essentially unknown. The Year of the Pig completes the twelve-year cycle that began in the mid-1990s, making 2007 a minor closing landmark for the series before it restarted.
