The Central Bank of Brazil introduced the real on 1 July 1994, replacing the cruzeiro real at 2,750 to one as part of the Plano Real stabilisation plan. Hyperinflation had burned through Brazil's money names; the real was the country's fifth currency in just eight years.

Congress created the dollar with the Coinage Act of 1792, the law that also established the US Mint. Today's bills are Federal Reserve Notes, issued through the central bank created in 1913. Federal paper money itself dates to 1861, first printed to help fund the Civil War.
