The portuguese "escudos" were in circulation since 1911.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Depicted in the image, for the 3rd time (3 different issues), is the portuguese banknote featuring the romantic poet Manuel Maria Barbosa do Bocage, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">who was born in Setúbal (1765-1805), a town south of Lisbon, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">seated on the right with paper, books, pen and ink</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">. Printed in blue, pink and purple. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The reverse of the note shows a portion of Lisbon - image of Rossio Square as it was in the early 19th century, with crowd scene, printed in blue, pink, red and green. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;">Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage is considered to be the most representative Portuguese writer of the eighteenth century, standing out in a period in which Portuguese literature is renowned for its otherwise poor performances. For some, Bocage is the greatest Portuguese poet after Luís de Camões and Fernando Pessoa. Known for his poetry and translations, he was one of the most popular writers of his generation, particularly appreciated for his satiric and erotic poems and, above all, for the anecdotes that circulated about him, the majority of which were false or apocryphal.
Bocage's years spent as a "bohemian" inhabitant of Lisbon also contributed to his rakish image, which evolved over the years to the point of becoming, in the 1970s, a symbol of the defense of freedom. </span></div>
