| Opmerkingen |
The Caixa de Conversão was a short-lived currency board established in 1906 under Finance Minister Leopoldo de Bulhões, designed to stabilize the milréis by pegging it to gold at a fixed rate of 15 pence. The institution issued its own notes backed by gold deposits — a deliberate break from the inflationary paper emissions that had plagued Brazil since the Encilhamento crisis of the early 1890s.
Waterlow & Sons produced the plates in London, and this first print predates the 1910 revision series by three years. The Caixa was dissolved in 1914 when wartime gold flows made the peg untenable.
