Interesting fact
The Phalaenopsis Cornu-Cervi coin's design features a rare species of orchid, the Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi, which is native to Singapore and other parts of Southeast Asia. The orchid is depicted in a unique shape, with its petals and sepals curved to resemble an antler, hence its scientific name "cornu-cervi," which means "antler-like horn" in Latin. This coin's design not only showcases the beauty of the orchid but also highlights Singapore's commitment to conservation and sustainability.
