The crowned coat of arms of the Kingdom of Portugal, retained from the original monarchical design, is partially obscured by a typographed 'REPÚBLICA' overprint at left, affirming the note's Republican revalidation. |

| Opmerkingen |
When the Portuguese monarchy fell in October 1910, the Banco de Portugal faced an immediate practical problem: millions of réis in circulating notes bore the iconography of the deposed regime. Rather than undertake a full reprint, the bank applied a simple "REPÚBLICA" overprint to existing stock from the 9th print run — a stopgap that kept the currency system functioning during the political transition without the delay of designing and producing entirely new plates.
The overprint series spans several denominations, and P#109 is among the higher-value pieces in that group. Notes that saw heavy circulation through 1912 and beyond often show the overprint unevenly struck — a consequence of in-house application at the Estamparia rather than a controlled commercial press run.
