There are two kinds of banknotes out in Singapore , the paper (old) and polymer (new). I’m missing the denominations SGD 20, 100, 500, 1000 and 10000. But I guess I’ll just have to get SGD 20 and 100 because the higher denominations are way too expensive (unless someone would give it to me).

Exchange Rate

1 USD = 1.274 SGD

1 SGD = 33.998 PHP

    I used to collect money too, because my parents was able to travel once in a while when I was young. I find it interesting that Yusof bin Ishak is in all of them.

    Awww I travel a lot and I always keep a separate wallet for the currency of the country where I’m going but all the time I have extras and now I have collections of coins! Haha, and it takes me forever to locate my peso bills in my wallet now, I have not sorted it yet and I have so many bills from other countries mixed with our peso.. I should start sorting them soon.., ;-)

    The 5 dollar bill reminds me of Philippine’s new 200 peso bill. :D

    Awesome collection, btw.

    I also use to keep souvenirs of currencies in countries I’ve been to but they are all gone now. Ondoy took them. :(

    Anyway, nice hobby you have.

    Your hobby of collecting bank notes of different countries is a wholesome and educational one. Continue doing that.

    I have few of them and still good as new and few coins from previous trip in Singapore. To be honest to you their notes looks very interesting and worth keeping for collection purposes.
