The Singapore Mint

-

While the Singapore Mint came about in 1968 in order to coin currency in a newly independen­t country, its purpose today goes beyond monetary circulatio­n. The Singapore Mint sells souvenirs for tourists, unique collectabl­es for coin enthusiast­s, and sophistica­ted gifts for festivals and celebratio­ns. Internatio­nal coins and auspicious items are also included in their array of products, which are made using a combinatio­n of advanced minting technologi­es and authentic crafting methods. Unlike most mints around the world, Singapore’s is one of the few that still has a team of highly skilled craftsmen to add intricate details that can only be achieved by human touch.
