Brazil 1963 20 Cruzeiros front and back proof, PMG 67 Superb Gem Unc

Brazil 1963 - Tesouro Nacional 20 Cruzeiros Front & Back Proof

The 1963 series appeared during the last years of the old Cruzeiro (1942–1967) before successive redenominations reshaped the national currency. These proofs reflect the Tesouro Nacional’s collaboration with ABNC to maintain artistic consistency and technical refinement at a time when Brazil sought to project economic stability through design. Fine guilloche work, shaded intaglio portraits, and subtle tints illustrate ABNC’s precision craftsmanship for Latin American clients. Read more →

Brazil 1963 Tesouro Nacional 10 Cruzeiros note featuring Getúlio Vargas, Pick 167b, PMG 67 EPQ Superb Gem Uncirculated

Brazil 1963 - Tesouro Nacional 10 Cruzeiros Issuede Note (Pick 167b)

The obverse presents a formal engraved portrait of Getúlio Vargas, President of Brazil through two defining eras: his populist leadership of the 1930s and 1940s and his later return to power in the early 1950s. The image projects stability and authority, reflecting the government’s effort to reaffirm confidence in a currency already strained by inflation. The reverse displays an allegorical female figure representing the Republic surrounded by detailed guilloche and geometric security patterns.

Brazil 5 Cruzeiros 1963 specimen P176bs TDLR

Brazil 1963 - 5 Cruzeiros Specimen (Pick 176bs)

The 5 Cruzeiros was the entry-level note in the 1963 issue, combining classic British engraving motifs-crisp guilloche, strong vignette framing, and color separation-with Brazilian iconography. During this era, De La Rue handled multiple denominations for the Tesouro Nacional, producing parallel proof and specimen sets for approval before the Banco Central assumed full design authority later in the decade.
