| Reverse description | Central design features four Chinese characters arranged in a square reading 貳毫 (twenty cents) and 香港 (Hong Kong), enclosed within a beaded circle. The English legend *HONG - KONG* curves along the upper periphery, while TWENTY CENTS runs along the lower periphery, both following the scalloped contour of the flan. The date appears to the lower right between the beaded circle and the outer edge. The overall layout is symmetrical and clearly bilingual, reflecting the colony's dual administrative language tradition. |
