| Opmerkingen |
Banco Nacional Ultramarino had been issuing notes for Macau since the late nineteenth century, but wartime Macau was a peculiar place to be circulating paper — a Portuguese enclave surrounded by Japanese-occupied China, technically neutral and genuinely isolated. The 1945 date places this note at the very end of that strange interlude, when the territory's supply lines and monetary arrangements were under severe strain.
Waterlow & Sons printed the series in London under conditions that made physical delivery to Macau anything but routine. Notes from this issue are not commonly encountered in collectible condition, likely a function of heavy use in a small, cash-dependent economy with no easy resupply.
