Banco Nacional Ultramarino's wartime fractional issues for Portuguese Guinea were a direct response to the chronic shortage of small coinage that plagued the territory in the early years of the First World War. Bradbury, Wilkinson produced clean, reliable work for BNU throughout this period, and the Guinea fractionals share their general execution with other colonial emergency issues the London firm handled simultaneously.
The "seal type II" designation distinguishes this from the otherwise identical type I by the stamp applied at issue — a detail that trips up collectors who treat the two as interchangeable.
