| Opmerkingen |
Portugal's monetary position in 1891 was precarious enough that the government suspended gold convertibility in May of that year — a decision forced by a severe balance-of-payments crisis and the near-collapse of the Banco de Portugal's reserves. This note entered circulation inside that crisis, not before it.
The "1st. print" designation matters here: subsequent printings of the same Pick type show subtle but documentable differences in paper stock and ink saturation, and the first printing is the scarcer of the series.
