MACAU The Province of Macau, a Portuguese overseas province located in the South China Sea 40 miles southwest of Hong Kong, consists of the peninsula of Macau and the islands of Taipa and Coloane. It has an area of 6.2 sq. mi.(16 sq. km.) and a population of 500,000. Capital: Macau. Macau’s economy is based on light industry, commerce, tourism, fi shing, and gold trading - Macau is one of the entirely free markets for gold in the world. Cement, textiles, fi reworks, vegetable oils, and metal products are exported. Established by the Portuguese in 1557, Macau is the oldest European settlement in the Far East. The Chinese, while agreeing to Portuguese settlement, did not recognize Portuguese sovereign rights and the Portuguese remained largely under control of the Chinese until 1849, when the Portuguese abolished the Chinese customhouse and declared the independence of the port. The Manchu government formally recognized the Portuguese right to perpetual occupation of Macau in 1887. In 1987, Portugal and China agreed that Macau would become a Chinese Territory in 1999. In December of 1999, Macau became a special administrative zone of China. RULER Portuguese 1887-1999 MINT MARKS (p) - Pobjoy Mint (s) - Singapore MintVOL3/4
