The 2nd Family 100 Reais spans an unusually eventful stretch of Brazilian fiscal history, covering the Lula-era commodity boom, the Dilma Rousseff administration's unraveling, and the austerity pivot under Temer — all within a single continuous print run. Four distinct signature combinations reflect five ministerial changes at the Finance Ministry and Banco Central, including Tombini's tenure through the 2015–2016 recession and the controversial appointment of Henrique Meirelles under a presidency that had itself come to power via impeachment.
The Mantega/Meirelles pairing is the earliest and typically the easiest to source. Notes bearing the Levy/Tombini combination date from a short window in 2015–2016, making them the scarcest of the four.
