HONG KONG (SAR). Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation. 10 Dollars, 1.1.1923. P-167s. KNB55S. Specimen. PMG Uncirculated 62. Signed by A. Stephen. A fabulous offering of the 'Beach' 10 Dollars in specimen form, part of the 'Scenic' group of notes issued by Hong Kong banks in the early part of the 20th century. A pleasant blend of soft colours, the harbour scene on the left, and walkers on the beach on the right, from which its nickname is derived. The reverse shows the old Hong Kong HSBC office. A note that is always strongly contested in both issued and specimen forms. PMG Comments " Previously Mounted, Discoloration ". Estimate: $4,000 - $7,000. PMG Uncirculated 62. 1923年香港上海匯豐銀行拾圓。樣票。 由A. Stephen簽名。沙灘系列拾圓樣票，為市場罕見之精品。本版屬二十世紀初香港銀行發行的"風景"系列紙幣，色彩柔和雅緻：左側為海港景色，右側為沙灘漫步人物，其暱稱由此得來。背面印有香港滙豐銀行舊總行大樓。無論流通票或樣票，於市場上素為藏家競逐之焦點。PMG備註"曾黏貼，褪色"。

Estimate:£1,513.49
