| Opmerkingen |
Banco Nacional Ultramarino's 50 Centavos of 1914 was part of a fractional issue driven by a shortage of small coin across Portugal's overseas territories — a chronic problem that pushed colonial administrations toward paper substitutes for denominations that would normally never appear on a banknote. Bradbury Wilkinson had been the BNU's preferred security printer for years, and the relationship was well-established by the time this series was commissioned.
Pick 48 is scarce in any grade. Low-denomination fractionals circulated hard and were discarded rather than saved.
