开个价

This 1000 escudos banknote was issued by Portugal on 19 May 1967, and belongs to the BP series. It represents one of the most significant denominations of Portuguese currency of that era, reflecting the monetary history of the country throughout the 20th century.

The banknote features the portrait of Maria II of Portugal (1819-1853), nicknamed "A Educadora" (the Educator) and "A Boa Mãe" (the Good Mother). Queen of Portugal from 1826 to 1853, she was the first woman to reign in her own right over Portugal and played a central role in the liberal period of Portuguese history. Her presence on this denomination reflects the historical and symbolic importance accorded to her in the collective Portuguese memory.

This banknote belongs to a series issued by the Banco de Portugal, the institution responsible for monetary issuance in Portugal. The 1000 escudos banknotes of this period are recognisable by their characteristic format and refined iconography, typical of European fiduciary productions of the 1960s, combining fine engraving with the security features of the time.

The date of 19 May 1967 printed on the banknote corresponds to the official issue date of this series, a common practice for Portuguese banknotes that allowed each issue to be precisely identified. This type of banknote circulated in Portugal until the gradual introduction of new denominations, before the definitive replacement of the escudo by the euro in 2002. The weight of the banknote is 1 gram, consistent with the typical characteristics of banknotes of this generation.
