Hong Kong 1905 Ten Cents
香港一九零五年一毫銀幣
Despite the fact that the published mintage figures for this issue exceed thirty three million, this date was apparently never circulated in the Colony. This conjecture is born out by the fact that the few specimens which have appeared on the market over the past ten years have all been offered in countries outside Hong Kong, and all showed little or no sign of ever having been in circulation. The writer has heard of only one specimen being found in Hong Kong, but unfortunately its existence and origin have not been verified.
據公佈的鑄量數字,這次發行超過三千三百萬枚, 但這一年份的硬幣似乎從未在本港流通過。我們這樣猜測是因為在過去十年內在市面所發現的寥寥十幾枚樣本,都是來自海外的,而且也沒有明顯跡象顯示它們曾經使用過。筆者曾聞說有一枚是在香港發現的,但可惜它的存在與來源卻至今還未被證實。
