Banco Nacional Ultramarino served as the note-issuing authority for Portuguese Guinea, and this series was produced by Bradbury Wilkinson during the Second World War — a period when Atlantic shipping risks made the logistics of delivering printed currency from England genuinely precarious. Portugal maintained neutrality throughout the conflict, which kept colonial financial channels open but complicated.
Three distinct signature combinations span the 1941–1945 date range, reflecting administrative turnover at the bank rather than separate emissions. Bradbury Wilkinson's intaglio work for colonial Portuguese issues of this period is consistently fine, though the Guinea series is considerably scarcer than comparable BNU notes for Mozambique or Angola.
