<p>[QUOTE=&quot;kvasir, post: 82450, member: 4139&quot;]Most of the recent pre-1997 notes do not contain the Royal portrait anyway. I believe only the ones issued by the &quot;Government of Hongkong&quot; do,while the ones via the banks don&#039;t. The Bank of China only began issuing bills in Hong Kong in the 90s if memory serves right. There used to be only the Standard Charter Bank and the HSBC, which has been issuing bills since 1865. The oldest HSBC bill i have in my collection is the 1956 10$ bill. </p><p><br /></p><p>The most recent Hong Kong bill in my collection that carries the Queen&#039;s portrait is a 1$ note with QEII from 1958. I have three very used 1$ notes that feature KG VI and KG V. Also I have 2 questionable bills (10c and 5c) with only one-sided printing that carries QEII&#039;s portrait.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
