10 Centavos FAO

Brazil's 1995 FAO coinage was part of the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization's long-running program encouraging member states to mint issues tied to food security themes. For Brazil, the timing coincided with the early stabilization period following the Plano Real, launched in July 1994, which had finally broken the country's decade-long cycle of hyperinflation — at its worst, exceeding 2,700% annually in 1993.

Mintage for this type was modest, distributed largely through collector channels rather than heavy circulation.
