| Reverse description | The reverse features a highly detailed, colorfully enamelled depiction of the Dendrobium crumenatum orchid, commonly known as the Pigeon Orchid and Singapore's national flower. A single large white bloom with a distinctive yellow-gold centre occupies the focal point of the field, surrounded by vivid green leaves and delicate flower buds rendered in selective color application. The face value $5 is inscribed in large numerals at the lower left, while the species name DENDROBIUM CRUMENATUM arcs along the upper periphery in an elegant incuse legend. The inscription 1 TROY OZ 999 FINE SILVER appears along the lower rim, attesting to the coin's precious metal content. |
