Interesting fact
The 1987-1992 Hong Kong 1 Dollar coin featuring Elizabeth II's 3rd portrait has a unique feature - it has a small letter "H" mintmark on the obverse side, indicating that it was minted at the Royal Mint in London, rather than at the Hong Kong Mint. This makes it a rare and interesting variation for collectors.
