Anmerkungen

Banco Nacional Ultramarino occupied an unusual position in Portuguese colonial finance — it held the right of note issue across multiple overseas territories simultaneously, and this 5 Escudos note, though bearing no explicit territorial designation in its title, was authorized for circulation in the Portuguese colonial sphere rather than metropolitan Portugal. Bradbury, Wilkinson's engraving work for BNU during this period was consistently fine, and the firm had a long-standing relationship with Portuguese colonial issuers stretching back into the nineteenth century.

The 1921 date places this squarely in the post-WWI monetary disorder that affected Portuguese finances severely — the escudo itself had only replaced the real system in 1911, and inflation through the early 1920s made small-denomination notes like this one churn through circulation rapidly.
