| Reverse description | Central device depicting a ram in recumbent pose, rendered in detailed relief in the style of Chinese decorative art, commemorating the Year of the Goat in the Chinese zodiac. A stylised ruyi cloud motif appears in the upper centre of the field. The Chinese characters 香 (fragrant) and 港 (harbour), together reading Hong Kong, flank the central device at left and right respectively. Four pellets mark the cardinal points around the central design. The legend HONG KONG curves along the upper periphery in Latin script, and the denomination $1000 is inscribed along the lower border, all within a continuous beaded rim. |
