This issue, minted in Lisbon for the Portuguese colony of Timor, is the only fifty centavos for that colony. Issues for that colony did not commence until 1945, after the Japanese surrender, and continued until Portuguese withdrawal in 1975. Soon after, Indonesian forces occupied and devastated the island until Australian pressure caused them to withdraw as well, in 1999. The area preserves a fragile independence as the Republic of Timor-Leste.
