The Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, $1, 30.6.1879, serial number 367632, grey frame, $1-'Yi'-$1 in orange underprint, handsigned at lower left, reverse lilac, (Pick 113), PMG 10 Very Good (Annotations). Pick states notes from this date should have the red-orange obverse but it clear that on this note it is lilac. A small but interesting 'error' which occurred during the very first day of the colour change.
1879年匯豐銀行「背紫」1元，編號367632，PMG 10，有書寫，據世界紙鈔目錄大全記載，此鈔應該是「背紅」，十分有趣的小錯
