| Additional information |
Singapore's lunar series has been issued continuously since 1967, making it one of the longest-running official lunar coinage programs in the world. The 2010 Tiger issue falls in the fourth cycle of the twelve-year sequence — the Monetary Authority having committed to the series long before such coins became a standard revenue product for mints globally.
The Tiger year holds particular resonance in Singapore, where the animal carries deep cultural weight across the country's Chinese majority population. 1998, the previous Tiger year, saw a notable spike in Singaporean birth registrations — a pattern consistent across much of the Chinese diaspora.
