Brazil went through waves of economic turmoil in the second half of the 20th century, during which the South American country switched its national currency many times. Two currencies with the name ‘Cruzado’ were in use in Brazil between 1986 and 1990:
The Brazilian Cruzado (BRC) was in use between 1986 and 1989. It replaced the Second Cruzeiro ‘Novo’ at a rate of 1 cruzado for 1000 cruzeiros novos. The Cruzado was replaced by the Cruzado Novo (BVN) at a rate of 1 cruzado novo for 1000 cruzados. In 1990 the Cruzado Novo was replaced by the Third Cruzeiro at par.

1986 - 1989Exchange Rate: £0.00003View BanknotesThe Cruzado was the national currency of Brazil from 1986 until 1989. The Brasília-based Banco Central do Brasil initially issued Brazilian Cruzado banknotes in denominations from Cz$10 to Cz$500 Cruzados. Due to high inflation there was a need to issue higher denomination banknotes, resulting in Cruzado bills of Cz$1000, Cz$5000 and Cz$10000 issued between 1987 and 1989. The value of Brazilian Cruzado banknotes was wiped out entirely by inflation. Cruzados are no longer exchangeable at the Banco Central do Brasil. However at Leftover Currency we continue to exchange the demonetized Cruzado banknotes for a rate that covers their small collectible value.Brazilian Cruzados Novos banknotes
