| Anmerkungen |
Banco Nacional Ultramarino was a Lisbon-based colonial bank chartered in 1864 specifically to manage currency and credit across Portugal's overseas territories. By 1909, it was issuing notes for multiple colonies simultaneously — the same Bradbury Wilkinson plates were often adapted across different territories with minimal modification, which makes precise attribution of specific P#28 printing runs to a single colony worth scrutinizing against the series prefix and overprint details.
Bradbury Wilkinson had by this date established a strong reputation for intaglio security printing, and their work for BNU was consistent with their broader Portuguese colonial contracts. Whether this particular note circulated in Mozambique, Angola, or another territory changes its monetary history considerably.
