Beside when does SG$1 being introduced, How about the design of the coin?
SG$1 coin inscribed with an OCTAGON which look like a BA GUA (a chinese lucky charm). What actually happen was about the construction of the MRT tunnels. The Feng Shui masters believed that through downtown Singapore would have an adverse effect. Therefore the Feng Shui masters recommand each and every of the household to display a bagua to negate the issue.
However there were many Singaporean who did not adhere to Chinese belief, so the recommandation was not a good idea and that is how SG$1 come about.
