The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) on Tuesday unveiled the limited-edition commemorative coins for the Year of the Rat.

The coin features an image of a rat against the backdrop of the Sungei Buloh Wetland Reserve - Singapore's first ASEAN Heritage Park.

The reverse side of the coins bears the Singapore Coat of Arms with the year 2020.

The coins are the fourth in the Singapore Fourth Chinese Almanac Coin Series. The series will be issued over 12 years from 2017 to 2028, with each year’s issue depicting a zodiac animal in a park or natural landscape setting in Singapore.

Ten versions of the Year of the Rat coins will be issued on Jan 1 next year.
