What you need to know about the currency Hong Kong Dollar
The Hong Kong dollar (HKD) has been the currency in circulation in Hong Kong since 1863, when the British Empire established the mint in this administrative region of China. Until then, foreign coins were used for transactions. Its symbol is HK$.
Nowadays, there are banknotes of Hong Kong dollars in denominations of 10, 20, 50, 100, 500, and 1000 HKD in circulation. In 2009 and 2015, commemorative legal tender banknotes of 150 HK$ were issued, although they are not easily found. They were made to celebrate the anniversary of the Bank of Hong Kong.
The currencies of Hong Kong are 10, 20, and 50 cents, and 1, 2, 5, and 10 dollars. One dollar is divided into 100 Hong Kong cents. All of them feature the regional flower bauhinia blakeana and other identifying symbols of the country.
At the beginning of 1993, the coins featuring the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II gradually disappeared, a remnant of Hong Kong's colonial past. There are still some in circulation and they have already become collector's items.
The Hong Kong dollar is also accepted in Macau. There it backs the Macanese pataca, the official currency of the island. Between the two currencies, there is a fixed and unlimited exchange rate.
