| Aanvullende informatie |
Singapore's gold bullion program launched in the early 1980s as the city-state positioned itself as a regional precious metals trading hub, competing directly with Hong Kong for institutional and retail bullion business across Southeast Asia. The Board of Commissioners of Currency — dissolved in 2002 when its functions transferred to the Monetary Authority — issued these pieces under a mandate that prioritized investment accessibility over commemorative prestige.
The half-troy-ounce format was a deliberate choice to undercut the entry cost of the one-ounce Krugerrand, then the dominant retail bullion coin globally.
