The "0 Real" municipal scrip notes issued by small Brazilian municipalities in the early 1990s belong to one of the stranger episodes in modern monetary history. Following the Collor Plan's catastrophic freezing of bank accounts in March 1990, liquidity in daily commerce collapsed almost overnight. Several interior towns — Monte Castelo among them — responded by issuing their own local currency outside any federal authorization, simply to keep markets functioning.
Monte Castelo is a small municipality in Santa Catarina state. The denomination "0 Real" predates the federal Real currency introduced in 1994, making the name coincidental rather than derivative.
