| Reverse description | A stylised goat rendered in a decorative, folk-art inspired relief occupies the central field, its woolly body depicted with swirling spiral motifs suggestive of traditional Chinese artistic conventions. The background is divided into quadrants filled with repeating patterns of the Chinese character '未' (the Heavenly Stem for the Goat year), creating a textured geometric field. At the upper portion of the design, the two-character Heavenly Stem combination '乙未' is prominently displayed within a structured framework. The denomination '$25' appears in the lower right field, and the inscription '5 TROY OZ 999 FINE SILVER' is engraved along the lower right rim. The designer's initials 'XYF' appear in the lower left field. |

| Additional information |
Singapore's lunar series has been issued continuously since the 1980s, making it one of the longer-running such programs among Southeast Asian mints. The Monetary Authority of Singapore administers these releases directly rather than through a separate mint authority, which is unusual — most comparable issues worldwide are delegated to a national mint with its own operational mandate. The 2015 Goat falls in the third full cycle of the twelve-year sequence for this series.
