| Additional information |
The Cruzeiro Real was an intermediate currency, introduced in August 1993 as Brazil's government scrambled to stabilize an economy where annual inflation had exceeded 2,000 percent. It lasted barely a year before being superseded by the Real in July 1994 — the cornerstone of the Plano Real, engineered largely by then-Finance Minister Fernando Henrique Cardoso. Coins denominated in Cruzeiros Reais had the shortest official circulation window of any Brazilian monetary series in the twentieth century.
