This note resembles the previous paper ten
dollars notes issued in 2002, 2003
and 2005,
retaining some of its security features
while
adopting some new security features
unique
to polymer notes. This is also the
only current
denomination ten dollars note issued
by the
Government of Hong Kong. All other
circulating
notes in Hong Kong are issued by the
3 major
Banks, namely Hong Kong and Shanghai
Bank
Corporation (HSBC), Chartered Bank
(CB) and
Bank of China (BoC). However none of
the
these banks currently issue banknotes
smaller
than HK$20. Note: This including the 45 Uncut Sheet were first released on 20th November 2007 mainly for charity purposes.

In January 2008, another batch of uncut sheets were released and all sold out. |
