Beschrijving voorzijde Veiled and diademed bust of Queen Victoria facing left, with hair gathered and secured beneath a veil, rendered in high relief after the portrait engraved by Leonard Charles Wyon. The effigy is finely detailed, presenting a mature likeness of the Queen in the 'widow's veil' style introduced following the death of Prince Albert. The legend 'VICTORIA QUEEN' arcs around the upper periphery in Latin characters. The field is smooth and unadorned, focusing attention on the portrait. The overall style reflects the refined craftsmanship characteristic of Royal Mint pattern issues of the Victorian era.

Beschrijving keerzijde Central field features four large Chinese characters arranged in a square reading '香港壹毫' (Hong Kong One Hao/Ten Cents), flanked by decorative floral or star ornaments. The English legend 'HONG KONG' arcs across the upper portion of the reverse, while 'TEN CENTS' appears along the lower periphery, with the date '1873' positioned at the base. Asterisk or star ornaments serve as separators within the legends. The bilingual design reflects the dual Chinese and British administrative character of the colony, consistent with the pattern coinage produced at the Royal Mint for Hong Kong during this period.
