Banco Nacional Ultramarino's 10 Centavos of 1914 belongs to a fractional series rushed out to address a chronic small-change shortage in Portuguese colonial territories — a problem that plagued the entire Lusophone world in the early twentieth century as silver coin disappeared from circulation. The "seal type II" designation distinguishes it from earlier impressions by the form of the official stamp applied over the printed surface, a security measure rather than a design revision.
Bradbury Wilkinson produced work for numerous colonial issuers during this period, and the technical quality of their intaglio printing holds up even on low-denomination pieces like this one.
