| Comments |
Standard Chartered Bank has issued Hong Kong dollars under colonial and post-handover authority alike, and this 2003 series continued that unbroken thread — the bank retains its right of issue under the Basic Law, one of three commercial banks still licensed to print Hong Kong currency. The print date of 30 April 1945 printed on this note is almost certainly a cataloging or data error; the series did not exist in 1945, and Standard Chartered's modern Hong Kong issues began in their current form decades later.
Watermark-only security for a $100 note is notably sparse by early 2000s standards, when most comparable denominations from the same issuer carried security threads and color-shifting ink.
