Part of Singapore's long-running Lunar New Year bullion series, which began in 1981 and was among the first Asian sovereign gold lunar programs — predating the more widely recognized Chinese Gold Panda lunars in sustained series format. The 1995 Pig issue corresponds to the year 亥 in the sexagenary cycle, the final sign before the sequence resets.
The .9999 fineness was a deliberate marketing distinction from the outset, positioning Singapore's issues above the .9990 standard common elsewhere at the time.
