| Opmerkingen |
Banco Nacional Ultramarino's wartime rupias for Portuguese India were issued as an emergency measure after the disruptions of World War One severed normal currency supply lines to Goa. Bradbury Wilkinson had printed for BNU before, and the London connection was entirely practical — Portuguese India's monetary system was denominated in rupias and tangas, not escudos, reflecting the territory's deep commercial integration with the broader Indian subcontinent rather than with Lisbon.
The 1917 series is notably scarce in any grade. Goa's humid climate was brutal on paper currency, and low-denomination notes like this one circulated hard before wearing out entirely.
