Reverse description A detailed three-quarter frontal view of a Singapore Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) train occupies the central field, depicted emerging from a cutting and approaching a platform, with a driver visible in the cab. Behind the train, a stylised urban skyline of high-rise residential and commercial buildings fills the background, evoking Singapore's modern cityscape. The curved legend MASS RAPID TRANSIT arcs across the upper periphery, while the denomination 5 DOLLARS is inscribed in bold raised lettering across the lower field.
