| Opmerkingen |
The 1891 issue coincided with one of the most severe financial crises in Portuguese history. Following a catastrophic sovereign default that year — triggered by a collapse in Brazilian trade revenues and chronic government overspending — Banco de Portugal came under intense pressure to expand note circulation to cover state obligations. This 1000 Réis was part of that emergency expansion.
The series is known for ink oxidation issues on surviving examples, particularly affecting the dark blue printing. Paper brittleness along fold lines is common, a consequence of the lower-quality stock used under the constrained procurement conditions of 1891.
