Tucked away at Teban Gardens Crescent is the Singapore Mint, home to a “museum” filled with coins and notes.

For those with a long memory, there was once a Singapore Coins & Notes Museum in Chinatown, next to the currently closed Chinatown Heritage Centre. Back in November 2014, the Chinatown outlet closed and relocated to the Singapore Mint headquarters.

Located just inside the doors of the Singapore Mint building is its shop which is filled with coins and notes. This is a single room with various showcases.


A Coin & Notes “Museum”

For avid fans of coins and notes, it is a chance to view a wide variety of monies, many of which are collectible.
