This note exists because of a coup. When Dom Miguel declared himself absolute king in July 1828 — overthrowing the constitutional order his brother Pedro IV had established — the Royal Treasury needed to purge the regency from its circulating paper. The solution was an overprint: existing João VI-era 2400 Reis stock, already printed and in reserve, was stamped with Miguel's authority rather than reprinted from scratch. It was cheap, fast, and politically legible.
The overprint itself is the historically significant element here. Survivorship is complicated by the fact that Miguel was deposed in 1834, after which his monetary instruments were officially delegitimized — many were withdrawn and pulped during the Liberal restoration.
