Explore the Exquisite Hong Kong One Dollar 1935 Note
A Historic Survivor of the Silver Standard Crisis
Step back into the height of the British colonial era with this authentic 1935 Government of Hong Kong 1 Dollar note. This is more than a banknote; it is a historical artifact from the year Hong Kong was forced off the Silver Standard. Following the U.S. Silver Purchase Act of 1934, silver prices skyrocketed, draining the Colony of its coins and forcing the urgent introduction of this paper dollar.

-
Obverse (Front): Features a regal, mature portrait of King George V in an oval frame on the right. The note is printed in a striking deep purple ink with a multicolored underprint.
-
Reverse (Back): Showcases intricate geometric guilloche patterns and the denomination clearly stated in English and Chinese (壹圓).
