The World Paper Money from Krauss lists two different issues for 1897. The illustration for the first issue features only a ship at the upper centre and the wording "Succural em Mozambique" whereas the second issue is described as having a "Standing Indian at left, ship at centre" but the wording states "...em Lourenco Marques". No values given for either so they have to be pretty rare.
Yours looks genuine and although the only illustration of the second series in the catalog features the 2500 Reis note the two signatures to the right of yours matches their picture and the serial number is of the same type (001:511 on the example given). Maybe the one you're interested in is a previously unknown "type".
