About this banknote
The issuing authority for this 500 reis banknote is not specified, as it appears to be a local or private issue from Brazil in 1920. Such issues were often introduced to facilitate local trade and services, particularly during periods of currency shortages or economic challenges.
The front side of the banknote features a geometric central motif with an illustration of crystals, along with the inscription "H.
