Shown is a copper-nickel 200 réis of the United States of [[Brazil]]. This is the regular issue, struck 1938, 1940 and 1942. A commemorative 200 réis (KM 537) was issued in 1938 which, not surprisingly, is much easier to find in nice condition than this type. The 200 réis was abolished in 1942 with the reform of the coinage in that year. The portrait is of Getulio Vargas, president and dictator of Brazil until 1945.

''Recorded mintage:'' 7,666,000.
