| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed in dark olive-green on a pale yellow ground and dominated by a large central circular vignette containing a steam-assisted sailing ship at sea with smoke billowing from its funnel, rendered in fine intaglio line work. A decorative ribbon banner curves across the vignette, inscribed with the bank's motto, flanked on either side by circular denomination medallions reading '5 CENTAVOS'. A large anchor motif anchors the composition at the lower centre, and scrolling acanthus ornaments fill the corners. The full bank name is distributed across a flowing ribbon at the foot of the design. |

| Anmerkungen |
The Banco Nacional Ultramarino issued this small-denomination wartime note under emergency conditions that had effectively stripped Portugal's colonial banking system of its metallic small change. By 1918, the hoarding of copper and bronze coins — accelerated by World War I and the economic disruption of the Portuguese Republic's early years — had created a genuine transactional void at the lowest denomination levels, forcing BNU to authorize paper substitutes that would have been considered absurd in peacetime.
Annuncio Commercial was a Lisbon commercial printer, not a specialist security printer. The choice reflects how severely constrained BNU's options were at this moment.
