| Additional information |
No entity called "Banco de Cabinda" has ever issued legal tender coinage. Cabinda is an Angolan exclave, and Angola's monetary authority is the Banco Nacional de Angola, which issues the kwanza — not the real. This piece has the hallmarks of a private fantasy strike or novelty issue with no legitimate issuing authority behind it.
