During interview: Signing a 5"x8" paper

[mario]

Towards the end of my interview 2 weeks ago in San Antonio, the DAO asked me to sign 2 times at the bottom part of the N-400 and ALSO a certificate-like paper 5"x8" that looked like a currency note.

Since it happened so fast, I cannot remember if that paper said "certificate of naturalization" on it or not.... Not sure what exactly it was.

Does anyone recall doing this and what that paper was?

Although I can't remember for sure, it looks a lot like it. I remember the IO asking me to sign the bottom part of N-400 and then sign my full name in cursive on a similar looking paper (as in the link).

Did you have to do the same thing?

Does it make sense to sign it before you actually take the oath?

You canot sign a blank certificate of Naturalization without verifying the information in it. Moreover once you sign it they should hand it over to you.
