Hong Kong – Scott # 776, used

Description

Hong Kong – Scott #776 – $10 Victoria Harbour Night Skyline – Used

This striking $10 stamp from 1992 features a beautifully illuminated Victoria Harbour skyline at dusk, showcasing the world-famous urban view that has long symbolized Hong Kong’s identity as an international crossroads of commerce, culture, and architecture. Against a deep blue evening sky, the city’s towers reflect across the harbor in a vibrant sweep of color and light.

Issued during the final years of British administration, this stamp is part of the popular “Hong Kong Skyline” definitive series, which captured the city’s modern character just before the 1997 handover.

Used examples are especially collectible when postmarks are well-placed and do not obscure the skyline — this stamp shows a light circular cancellation, preserving the clarity of the scene. A fine representative piece of late-colonial Hong Kong postal history.
