Reverse description Central field features four large Chinese characters (香港一毫, meaning 'Hong Kong Ten Cents') arranged within a beaded inner circle. The outer legend reads HONG KONG at the top, separated by a central dash, and TEN CENTS at the bottom, with the date appearing at the lower right between the beaded circle and the outer toothed border. Small floral ornaments serve as stops flanking the legend. The bilingual design reflects the colony's dual administrative and commercial character.
