lky coin mas said is legal tender. so can used. but who will used a value> $10 coin as $10. can only said man not financially sane or the coin given to him or just trying to find trouble or may be to get more eye balls from the venture.

[starbugs]

LKY already said he didn't not be iconised or worshipped. Maybe the cashier was just trying to respect his wishes.

[Clyde]

Coin not acceptable in vending machine or cash payment machine. Same as Brunei's notes

[RichDad]

Only citizens and PRs can buy. Others can only buy if there are left overs from the 4m coins here.

I am sure there will be demand from foreigners overseas.

[ODA TETSURO]

Meaning the LKY notes also cannot use? Better use it now or else no value!

[K88 shu shu]

the guy no more money and need to use the LKY coin for payment ?

[sgh]

He is just testing the public acceptance of a $10 coin and it seem most ppl still don't accept

MAS also say 1c is legal tender. You try making payment using 1c.. See cashier will accept or not.

[Alice Alicia]

Cashier doesn't like the face on the coin lah.

[Diamonaire]

4 million coins enough for circulation.

[surfer]

It’s fairly new and most people have not come across this new coin. They are afraid it’s a counterfeit and dared not accept the coins. Over time it will be accepted as a form of payment.

As I’ve mentioned the coin is fairly new and people may have just collected at the bank. So not many people or cashiers know of this new coins.
