Opmerkingen	Banco Nacional Ultramarino issued notes across a sprawling network of Portuguese overseas territories, and distinguishing which colony a given note was intended for requires careful attention to the overprint or place-of-payment text — the base designs were frequently shared across multiple branches. This 1909 2500 Reis note from Bradbury Wilkinson falls into that category of centrally produced blanks finished for specific territorial use. Bradbury Wilkinson's intaglio work of this period is generally reliable and technically consistent, though the firm was not yet at the peak of its security printing reputation it would later build through the interwar decades.
