BRL Information

The BRL (Brazilian Real) is Brazil’s currency, introduced in 1994 to tame hyperinflation. Coins come in 5, 10, 25, 50 centavos and 1 real, with bills from 2 to 200 reais. Each note features an animal—like the jaguar on the 50—reflecting Brazil’s biodiversity. Check out more at the Central Bank of Brazil.

HKD Information

The HKD (Hong Kong Dollar) is Hong Kong’s currency, pegged to the USD. It uses coins (10¢, 20¢, 50¢, $1, $2, $5, $10) and bills ($10, $20, $50, $100, $500, $1,000). Bills are issued by three banks, each with unique designs—like HSBC’s lion. Learn more at the Hong Kong Monetary Authority.

Did you know? (BRL)

The real’s name comes from an old Portuguese coin meaning ‘royal.’

Did you know? (HKD)

HKD coins have scalloped edges because smooth ones were too easy to fake.
