Vila do Conde's municipal chamber issued these small-denomination cédulas in 1921 as part of the broader Portuguese municipal emergency currency wave — a direct consequence of the chronic coin shortage that had plagued the country since the First World War. The Banco de Portugal simply could not keep low-denomination coinage in circulation fast enough, and hundreds of câmaras municipais stepped in with their own paper substitutes. Litografia Nacional in Porto handled production for numerous northern municipalities during this period, making attribution of the printing straightforward.
Two centavos bought almost nothing by 1921. The denomination itself signals how severe the small-change crisis had become.
