Quote: Hong Kong became a colony of the British Empire after Qing China ceded Hong Kong Island at the end of the First Opium War in 1842.[16] The colony expanded to the Kowloon Peninsula in 1860 after the Second Opium War Looks like Hong Kong started as in island. So I say its an island

Quote: The way I see it, it's Taiwan or Bahrain. I didn't see any bilingual Taiwanese coins and Bahrain is too far west. Quote: Is this coin from Timor-Leste? I don't see any bilingual coins and doesn't that count as two words? Quote: Not the Philippines? I didn't see any bilingual Filipino coins, either, and I'm not sure if the word "the" counts in the name or not.

Quote: I didn't see any bilingual Taiwanese coins ... I'll make the (perhaps specious) argument that some of the Taiwanese coins use western numbering.

The Philippines have some circulating commemoratives that are bilingual.
That is a non-circulating coin joe
