Opmerkingen

The Caixa de Conversão was a short-lived monetary institution created in 1906 under Finance Minister Leopoldo de Bulhões, designed to stabilize the milréis by issuing notes backed by gold at a fixed exchange rate of 15 pence per mil réis. It worked, briefly — the rate held, and the Caixa accumulated reserves. The 1909 printing by Enschedé in Haarlem reflects that moment of relative confidence in Brazilian public finance.

The institution was liquidated in 1914 when the First World War made the gold peg impossible to maintain. Notes issued by the Caixa de Conversão were absorbed into the broader federal paper money supply, which dilutes their distinct institutional identity in most collections today.
