| 背面描述 | Printed entirely in green, the reverse carries a detailed architectural vignette of a grand colonial building with a domed roof, set within an expansive plaza with figures and a monument in the foreground and distant hills beyond. Four serial number panels appear at each corner, flanked on the right by a vertical row of five circular medallions containing symbolic vignettes. A large decorative blank cartouche occupies the left side, and Chinese characters for the denomination are placed at the lower right. |

The Chartered Bank of India, Australia & China operated under a Royal Charter dating to 1853, which granted it the right to issue notes across its eastern branch network — a privilege that distinguished it sharply from ordinary commercial banks operating in the same territories. By the 1930s, Hong Kong remained the primary market for notes of this denomination, where the dollar unit had displaced the older Mex dollar reckoning.
Waterlow & Sons produced this series through a period that encompassed Japanese occupation of Hong Kong, during which Chartered Bank notes were suppressed and Japanese military currency imposed. Notes printed before 1941 but surviving that occupation carry an unusual provenance — either withdrawn before the fall or preserved outside the colony entirely.
