Identification note: Exact Pick variety depends on signature/printer/date code; series is clear but precise catalog number not confirmed from photos. | Attributes match the Singapore Ship Series $2 type: obverse shows the tongkang (marked “TONGKANG”) with Singapore arms and dual serials; reverse shows the Chingay procession; printer imprint reads “B A BANKNOTE”; signature is Minister for Finance Richard Hu with red seal. These identify the P-39 family (Ship Series 2 Dollars). Not verified are the precise variety determinants (date code/microtext and subtype mapping), so the exact Pick suffix cannot be fixed from the provided images.
