| Reverse description | The reverse is dominated by two large bronze lion statues in reclining posture, flanking a central guilloche panel with a tall modern skyscraper vignette in the background. To the upper right, a neoclassical domed building — the former Legislative Council Building — is rendered in fine intaglio engraving. Decorative geometric and floral border patterns in orange and red tones frame the composition, with the denomination '1000' repeated at the upper left and right corners. |
