The Banco Nacional Ultramarino occupied a peculiar position among colonial issuing authorities — chartered in Lisbon but functioning as the note-issuing bank across Portugal's overseas territories, meaning a single institution produced currency for colonies spanning Africa, Asia, and the Pacific simultaneously. This particular issue was printed in London during wartime, which was not without logistical risk; Bradbury Wilkinson continued production for various colonial clients throughout the Second World War despite the obvious complications of operating a high-security printing facility in a city under periodic aerial bombardment.
The question of which territory this note was intended for is the key detail — BNU issued parallel 100 Escudo notes for multiple colonies under near-identical formats in this period, differentiated primarily by overprint or serial prefix.
