grains, symbolizing abundance and prosperity. The words “YEAR OF THE PIG” in
both English and Chinese are inscribed on the top. The year “2019” at the bottom
is flanked by a pair of peony blossoms (the flowers of wealth) entwined with
vines, to beckon wealth and longevity.
Reverse: Flourishing View of Victoria Harbour to
Witness a Prosperous Hong Kong
The reverse bears a splendorous view of the
renowned Victoria Harbour from the Peak, featuring the two tallest skyscrapers
of Hong Kong on both sides of the sea. It demonstrates the vibrant charm of Hong
Kong, the “Pearl of the Orient” as an international metropolis and one of the
world’s most competitive cities. Above the skyline is a blossoming Bauhinia, the
city’s floral emblem, to wish Hong Kong and Hongkongers booming future. The
outer ring features a pair of plump ears of grains to denote opulence, with the
inscription “Hong Kong Special Administrative Region” in English and Chinese.
