| Opschrift voorzijde | BANCO DE ANGOLA VINTE 20 VINTE (Translation: Bank of Angola, Twenty Angolares) |
| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed intaglio vignette illustrates the Reconquest of Luanda (1648), with Portuguese soldiers engaged in battle before a fortified coastal settlement, cannon positioned at right, a drummer and standard-bearer at left, and sailing vessels visible in the harbour beyond. The scene is framed by an ornate guilloche border with the denomination numeral 20 repeated in each corner. The caption "A RECONQUISTA DE LOANDA 1648" appears in the lower margin beneath the central vignette. |

| Opmerkingen |
The 1951 Banco de Angola series marked a shift toward more formally produced colonial currency after years of notes printed under tighter wartime and postwar constraints. Thomas De La Rue's involvement brought the high intaglio standards the London firm applied across much of British and Portuguese colonial paper — though Angola was, of course, a Portuguese territory, making De La Rue's role here a commercial arrangement rather than any colonial printing obligation.
The 20 Angolares denomination sat in the middle of everyday transactional use in mid-century Luanda, where the angolar had been the unit of account since 1928 when it replaced the old réis system at a rate of one angolar to 1,000 réis.
