| 裏面の説明 | The bank name in English runs across the top in bold letterpress. At right, the HSBC heraldic lion (known as the Stitt lion) accompanies the Arabic numeral 500, while a detailed architectural vignette of the Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation's principal office building occupies the left portion of the design. The outer margins are bordered with fine guilloche anti-counterfeiting patterns. |

Bradbury Wilkinson produced this note at their New Malden works during a period when Hong Kong's three-bank issuing arrangement was under periodic scrutiny — the colony's government had considered centralizing note issuance more than once, and never quite followed through. HSBC's $500 remained the highest practical denomination in everyday commercial use through this period, the $1,000 note existing but rarely seen outside banking circles.
Watermark-only security reflects the era's assumptions about forgery risk in Hong Kong — magnetic ink and metallic threads came later, with the 1980s redesign series that retired P#189 from circulation by 1983.
