In 1942, during the presidency of Getulio Vargas, the réis was dropped as a unit of currency after 400 years and the cruziero adopted. To mark the occasion, all new coins were released. This type was struck in 1979-83. It is worthless in all grades despite the low mintage. It is a unit of the second cruziero of 1967-86 (= 1,000 first cruzieros = 1,000 milréis). Brazil endured currency reforms in 1942, 1967, 1986, 1989, 1990, 1993 and 1994. Wikipedia comments, "Combined with all previous currency changes in the country's history, this reform [of 1994] made the new real equal to 2.75 × 10<sup>18</sup> (2.75 quintillion) of Brazil's original réis."
