Description: 15.00 15.00 Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE When my father was alive, he collected coins from circulation and sometimes found bills that he liked. Here is a five Cruzeiros Note from Brazil that he stashed away. The cruzeiro was the official currency of Brazil from 1942 to 1967. It replaced the old real, which had been in use since colonial times. It was in turn replaced by the cruzeiro novo. This bill is signed by Sergio A. Ribeiro, dating it between 1964 and 1967. The observe depicts historian-geographer-diplomat José Maria da Silva Paranhos (1845-1912), “The Baron of Rio Branco”. He was renowned for diplomatic skill, peacefully negotiating numerous border disputes, with Brazil's neighbors. These negotiations expanded Brazil's land mass by 10%. Earing him the title "Father of Brazilian Diplomacy". The reverse depicts Antonio Parreiras' painting “Conquista do Amazonas”, representing the conquest of the Amazon. The work Antônio Parreiras' can be seen in numerous Brazilian government sponsored projects. Such as this note's reverse art, which depicts Gonçalo Coelho's arrival on the Brazilian coast. The landing is depicted as Guanabara Bay, which became the city Rio de Janeiro. It has not been professionally graded, nor am I a note grader, but it appears to be, in my opinion, in Extremely Fine condition with two vertical folds.
