| Additional information |
Macau's lunar series patacas were issued under the jurisdiction of the Banco Nacional Ultramarino, a Portuguese colonial institution that retained monetary authority over the territory until the handover to China in 1999. The 1992 monkey issue appeared seven years before that transition, during a period when Macau's numismatic program was aggressively courting the Southeast Asian collector market — lunar issues were a reliable export earner, not a domestic circulation priority.
KM#52 cross-references a well-documented series, though collector demand has historically concentrated on the earlier years, making the mid-series issues like this one modestly overlooked despite identical production quality.
