| Comments |
Brazil's early 1980s were defined by spiraling inflation — the Cruzeiro was losing purchasing power so fast that the 100 Cruzeiro denomination, once meaningful, was becoming daily pocket change by the time this series closed in 1984. The two signature combinations reflect the rapid turnover in central bank governors during the period: Langoni resigned in 1983 under direct pressure from the Figueiredo government over disagreements on IMF austerity terms, a rare and public break between a sitting president and his own central bank chief.
Aloísio Magalhães, the note's designer, died in 1982 — before this series had finished printing.
