Standard Chartered Bank, Hong Kong, proof $50, 1.1.1985, serial number A000000, without watermark at left,
(Pick 280ap), PMG 64, printer's annotation 'PROOF NO.564/3'. At first glance, most will likely deem this as specimen but the lack of watermark during detailed inspection deems it otherwise. Proofs from any post 1980s Hong Kong notes are almost unheardof. First time seen in this format.


1985年渣打銀行試模樣票伍拾圓，編號 A000000，無水印，PMG 64，有印刷廠書寫‘PROOF No.564/3’，大多數人可能會認為這是一張樣票，但因沒有水印，所以應更相近試印票的格式。 1980年代後香港的試模樣票幾乎是聞所未聞，首見此版式
