Opmerkingen

Borba is an Alentejo town best known for its marble quarries and table wine, not its monetary policy. This 1 centavo note is a cédula — one of hundreds of small-denomination emergency issues produced by Portuguese municipal chambers and private entities between roughly 1917 and 1922, when wartime metal shortages stripped low-value coinage from everyday commerce almost entirely. The Câmara Municipal had no banking authority; necessity gave them one.

H. Gris & Cª was a Lisbon commercial printer, not a security press — these cédulas were produced to meet urgent local demand, not to high banknote specification. The designer credit "Rlonso" is almost certainly a stylized abbreviation, possibly an Alonso, but the name does not appear in the established record of Portuguese note designers.
