Hong Kong 1881 Twenty Cents
香港一八八一年二毫銀幣
Although the twenty cent coins of 1880 and 1881 were apparently struck in equal quantities (twenty five thousand), that of 1881 is much the scarcer of the two. There is no obvious reason for this, but the example points to the fallibility of placing too much trust in published figures, when attempting to evaluate rarity.
雖然一八八零年及一八八一年時鑄的二毫幣,數目相同, 皆為二萬五千枚, 但一八八一年的較為稀少得多。我們找不到明顯的解釋,但對某種硬幣罕有性的估計,是不能完全根據公佈的鑄量數字的。
