Comments

The Sociedade Numismática Paranaense issued this commemorative exonumia piece to mark the organization's 25th anniversary — a regional collectors' society based in Paraná, Brazil, with the "Araucária" denomination a purely notional unit named after the araucaria pine native to southern Brazil's plateau region. These have no monetary value and were never intended to circulate, functioning instead as membership premiums and trading pieces within the Brazilian exonumia collecting community.

The "1st Print" designation matters here: SNP anniversary notes of this type were occasionally issued in multiple print runs with subtle differences, and first-print copies typically carry the lower serial numbers sought by specialists.
