The central panel, framed by intricate guilloche rosettes, carries the denomination "DEZ CENTAVOS" in bold letterpress, with the bearer clause "PAGARÁ Á VISTA AO PORTADOR" above and "MOEDA CORRENTE" below. The date "BEIRA, 20 de OUTUBRO de 1933" is printed beneath the central panel, with two manuscript signatures and their respective titles, "O GERENTE DA CAIXA DE EMISSÃO" and "O ADMINISTRADOR", flanking them at the foot of the note. |

The Companhia de Moçambique — a chartered company granted administrative control over the Manica and Sofala territories — issued its own currency independently of the Portuguese colonial government in Lourenço Marques. By 1933, the company's concession was already in its final decade; Lisbon would revoke the charter in 1942 and absorb the territory directly into Mozambique. These low-denomination centavo notes were a practical necessity in a region where small coin was chronically scarce.
Bradbury Wilkinson handled the printing, as they did for much of the company's paper currency series. The R-prefix Pick numbering reflects the note's status as a private issuer rather than a sovereign or colonial state authority.
