Bradbury, Wilkinson produced this note for Banco Nacional Ultramarino at a moment when the institution was managing currency across multiple Portuguese overseas territories simultaneously — Mozambique, Angola, Portuguese India, Timor, and others all drew on shared or closely related plate work from the same London firm. The specific territorial attribution for P#17 matters here: BNU issued near-identical denominations for different colonies in this period, and misattribution in older collections is common.
The 1921 date places this squarely in Portugal's First Republic years, a period of severe monetary instability on the mainland that directly pressured colonial banking authorities to maintain independent emission controls.
