Według raportów rządu kolonii, ich wartość różniła się w zależności od miejsca (od 380 do 450 rupii), co spowodowało zakłócenia w handlu. Nawet banknoty Banco Nacional Ultramarino podlegały premii.

Kontrmarka "Koronowany PM" została wprowadzona "OGŁOSZENIEM ZARZĄDU FAZENDA z dnia 05 stycznia 1889 r.".
Pudełko z 40 stemplami, małymi kowadełkami i młotkami zostało wysłane z mennicy w Lizbonie.
Z powodu intensywnego użytkowania szybko przestały działać.
Ze względu na pilną potrzebę, zastąpiono je znaczkiem "PM", ponieważ w kolonii nie było grawerów, którzy mogliby wykonać lepszą pracę (ZAWIADOMIENIE ZARZĄDU FAZENDA z dnia 19 stycznia 1889 r.).
Stempel ten był nadal używany za panowania króla Carlosa i tradycyjnie portugalskie katalogi "układają" monety z tym stemplem za panowania tego ostatniego króla.
Ze względu na jego prymitywną produkcję, był on w dużej mierze podrabiany w tamtym czasie, a jego podrabianie trwa do dziś. Automatically translated

According to reports from the colony's government, the value varied from place to place (380 to 450 Réis) and this caused disruption in trade. Even the Banco Nacional Ultramarino notes were subject to a premium.

The countermark "Crowned PM" was instituted by the "NOTICE FROM THE BOARD OF FAZENDA of 05JAN1889".
A box with 40 punches, small anvils and hammers was sent from the Lisbon Mint.
Due to heavy use they quickly became inoperable.
Given the urgency, they were replaced by the stamp "PM" as there were no engravers in the colony that could do a better job (NOTICE FROM THE BOARD OF FAZENDA of 19JAN1889).
The stamp continued to be used under King Carlos and, traditionally, Portuguese catalogs "arrange" coins with this stamp during the reign of this last king.
Due to its crude manufacture, it was largely counterfeited at the time, and its counterfeiting continues today.
