| Additional information |
Singapore hosted the inaugural Youth Olympic Games in August 2010 — the first time the IOC had staged the event anywhere — making this issue a direct response to a genuine first rather than a routine commemorative cycle. The Monetary Authority issued circulating bimetallic commemoratives sparingly, and this denomination saw broad public uptake given the national significance of the hosting role.
