| Opmerkingen |
When Miguel I seized the Portuguese throne in 1828 and declared himself absolute king, the existing stock of João VI-era treasury notes required immediate political neutralization. Rather than print new currency from scratch, the Real Erário simply overstamped circulating 20,000 Réis notes from the João VI Regent series — a cheap, fast solution that also signaled administrative continuity while erasing the prior reign's nominal authority from the paper in use.
The overprint practice makes condition assessment complicated: the underlying note and the stamp aged at different rates, and the ink adhesion on the applied text was often inconsistent, leading to partial transfers that are sometimes mistaken for forgeries.
