Casa da Moeda struck this pattern in 1927 as part of Portugal's currency stabilization effort following years of monetary chaos tied to World War I financing and the turbulent early Republic. The escudo system, introduced in 1911, had been plagued by inflation and repeated devaluations; pattern work of this period reflects the government's attempts to rationalize denominations before committing to full production runs. The Gomes reference R E6.06 places this firmly within a documented but small family of rejected or unadopted trials — most never reaching circulation approval.
