The Monetary Authority of Singapore on Tuesday launched the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games (Singapore 2010) Commemorative Coins.

The 2-Singapore-dollar bi-metal brilliant uncirculated coin features the striking symbol of the Singapore 2010 emblem on the Aluminium-Bronze core.

Two youthful Singapore 2010 mascots, Lyo and Merly, and the distinctive Olympic rings are also featured in vibrant colors.

The 5-Singapore-dollar silver proof-like coin features the symbol of the Singapore 2010 emblem and the Olympic rings at the center flanked by two mascots in vibrant colors.

On the lower circumference is a crescent-shaped hologram featuring repeated patterns of the iconic Singapore lion head. The coin will be sold by itself or in a set framed by four pieces of medallions in colored finish that feature sport pictograms with local orchids at the rim.

The 10-Singapore-dollar gold proof-like coin features the symbol of the Singapore 2010 emblem and the Olympic rings, which are encircled by spiraling fire and water imagery of the Singapore 2010.
