This note was produced in anticipation of the Allied reoccupation of Hong Kong, before the Japanese surrender had even been formalized. It was printed in advance by the British authorities as part of a broader currency preparation effort — the Colony had been under Japanese military administration since December 1941, which had imposed its own military yen, rendering all pre-war Hong Kong currency officially void.
The 1945 cents series was never heavily circulated; the colony's economy rapidly moved past fractional paper denominations once normal commerce resumed. Surviving examples tend to be uncirculated or near so, simply because demand for such low-value paper was almost immediately eclipsed by coin reissues.
