| Additional information |
Singapore's Lunar Series gold issues are struck to a consistent fractional specification tied to the troy ounce, with this piece representing a quarter-ounce format. The 2021 Ox year holds particular calendrical weight — it opened the second cycle of Singapore's MAS lunar bullion program, which launched in 2012 with the Dragon.
Mintage figures for MAS lunar quarters have historically been capped in the low thousands, with sell-outs common within weeks of release.
