On September 2, the Central Bank of Brazil launched the new R $ 200.00 bill that will feature the maned wolf, a species of Brazilian fauna threatened by extinction. This will be the first ballot of a new value of the real family in 18 years. The last bill, R$20, had been launched in 2002.

It is worth visiting the https://www.bcb.gov.br/cedulasemoedas/notadeduzentos page of the Central Bank of Brazil. There you can check the reasons for the launch, curiosities and security items of all real notes.
