| Opmerkingen |
When Dom João VI died in March 1826, his eldest surviving son Pedro was simultaneously Emperor of Brazil — a constitutional impossibility that forced an immediate succession crisis in Lisbon. Pedro abdicated the Portuguese throne in favour of his daughter Maria within months, but before doing so he issued a constitutional charter and, critically, authorised the overprinting of existing circulating notes. This note is a direct artifact of that four-month reign: the P#12 João stock was on hand, and overprinting was cheaper and faster than commissioning a new issue from scratch.
The overprint practice also meant no interruption to a currency supply already strained by post-Napoleonic fiscal disorder. Pedro IV never set foot in Portugal as its king.
