| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Portuguese colonial arms — a quartered shield bearing the traditional Portuguese charges, surmounted by a mural crown of five towers — are displayed centrally, superimposed upon an armillary sphere rendered in outline. The colonial name MOÇAMBIQUE arcs as a bold legend around the upper field, flanked on each side by a decorative rosette and dot. The four-digit date appears in the lower exergue, also flanked by rosette ornaments. The entire design is encircled by a fine beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued under Portuguese colonial administration, this series coincides with the final years before Mozambican independence movements began gaining serious traction — FRELIMO would be founded in 1962, less than a decade after the last of these were struck. Portugal's Estado Novo regime under Salazar maintained tight economic control over its African territories, and the colonial coinage system was a deliberate instrument of that policy, keeping Mozambique monetarily dependent on Lisbon rather than developing autonomous financial infrastructure.
The KM#81 type replaced an earlier cupro-nickel issue, the shift to bronze reflecting postwar metal availability and cost pressures across Portuguese colonial mints.
