| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a naturalistic rendering of a rabbit in profile, seated and facing left, occupying the central field of the fan-shaped flan. The year 1987 is inscribed in Latin numerals at the upper portion of the field, referencing the Chinese lunisolar Year of the Rabbit (丁卯). The Chinese cyclical characters 丁卯 (Dīng Mǎo) appear in the lower left field, with the denomination $2 positioned to the lower right. The design is executed in proof finish with frosted relief against a mirror-polished field. |

| Additional information |
Singapore's lunar series coins are legal tender but exist almost entirely for the collector market — the Monetary Authority issues them in strict limited mintages with certificates, and virtually none enter circulation. The 2014 Rabbit issue falls within the second cycle of the Chinese zodiac series, which the MAS began running from 2008, meaning this is the second time Singapore had issued a Rabbit coin in the modern program.
