|March 14, 2025
Collectors can now add souvenirs marking the nation's 60th birthday, which include commemorative medallions, silver ingots and gold-plated bookmarks, to their trove.
The SG60 collection will be released in phases throughout 2025, The Singapore Mint said in a media statement on March 13.
Checks show that most of the items in the collection can be purchased or pre-ordered on The Singapore Mint's official website.
The Singapore Mint's products are also available at retail shops at Chinatown Point, Suntec City mall and the Coin Gallery in Teban Gardens Crescent.
The SG60 collectibles are centred around three main themes: Singapore's heritage districts, the Merlion and the kebaya.
Items in the Jalan Jalan Through Heritage Districts of Singapore collection celebrate five districts - Changi, Jurong, Tiong Bahru, Toa Payoh and Queenstown - in the form of medallions and gold-plated bookmarks.
