The Sociedade Numismática Paranaense, based in Curitiba, Paraná, issued this commemorative fantasy note marking the club's 25th anniversary. The araucária — the Paraná pine — is the defining symbol of the state, and naming the denomination after it is a deliberate regional statement rather than a monetary one. Fantasy exonumia of this kind circulates among collectors as a community artifact, not currency, and the "2nd Print" designation confirms a first run existed, likely in smaller quantity or with minor design differences.
