And she is finally among us: the look of the new R $ 200 bill was revealed at an online event of the Central Bank. The maned wolf finally gets a ballot to call his own, of course still within the visual identity of the other royal notes.
The animal prints a note that takes on shades of gray. However, the 100 reais bill is not the one with the highest value in circulation, and this is because one of the needs of the new bill was to supply cash transactions with a smaller volume of bills. With the devaluation of the currency over the decades, obviously R $ 100 is no longer a great value.
Another point that weighed in the creation of the new ticket was the payment of emergency aid. The unbanking of the population has been a problem since the beginning of payments, and many choose to have the amounts in kind.
The bill is already in circulation and 450 million of them will be printed in December this year.
The 200 reales note is the seventh of the Real. When the Central Bank decided to create it, the internet moved asking that the animal to seal the bill was the candy pooch.
It is worth remembering, once again it seems that The Simpsons predicted the future by anticipating the 200 reais bill in an episode in which the yellow family was traveling to Brazil.
And you, what did you think of the appearance of the new ballot? Are you eager to get one? Tell us in the comments!

As of yet, an official photo of the ballot has not yet been released, so there is no information on what the image will be. It is already known that the animal portrayed will be the maned wolf, but for security reasons – and, mainly, to avoid a fraud like the one seen weeks ago – there is no detail of the photo that is used in the note.
The R $ 200 bill joins the royal family 18 years after the R $ 20 bill debuted in the country in 2002. Among the justifications for creating a bill with a new value is the need to reduce the transactions carried out. with cash and consequently reduce banknote printing costs.
Another explanation pointed out by the institution is the need to facilitate the withdrawal of emergency aid, since the majority of beneficiaries choose to withdraw the benefit in kind.
Request to change the image of the note
As soon as the information about the launch of the new royal ticket was released, netizens created a petition requesting the change of the animal printed on the new ticket. For some Brazilians, the country would be better represented by the image of the charismatic mestizo candy on the banknotes.
Although the Central Bank has not modified its plans to stamp the maned wolf, with the repercussion of the petition, the administration of the institution has committed to adopt some measures to support the adoption of street animals, as well as to combat the bad deals. to dogs that are in vulnerable situations.
Officially stamped with the image of the maned wolf, the new R $ 200 bill begins to circulate this week and already has a printing order for 450 million bills made by the Central Bank.
