Explanation:
  • Due to the impending transfer of sovereignty in 1997, coins in Hong Kong were redesigned in the 1990s. Instead of featuring the British Monarch (which was Queen Elizabeth II at the time), the new coins displayed an embossed Bauhinia flower; the old coins were thus named 女皇頭 because the portrait of the Queen was embossed on them; literally: head of the Empress

  • any item that displays the portrait of the Queen of England, eg. stamps
