Wanderlust World Wanderlust World Brazil does not use the dollar. Its currency since 1994 is the Real (BRL), plural Reais, symbol R$. Therefore, there is no "Brazilian dollar" and no woman on it.
The current series (2010–present, "Animals" series) features native fauna on the front and biomes on the back:
| Denomination | Front (Animal) | Back (Biome) |
|---|---|---|
| R$2 | Hawksbill turtle | Atlantic Forest |
| R$5 | Great egret | Pantanal |
| R$10 | Green-winged macaw | Amazon |
| R$20 | Golden lion tamarin | Atlantic Forest |
| R$50 | Jaguar | Cerrado |
| R$100 | Maned wolf | Cerrado |
| R$200 | Maned wolf (new 2020) | Pampas |
The 1994–2010 "Human Figures" series featured:
No living or historical woman appeared on Brazilian banknotes until the Republic allegory (symbolic, not a specific person).
Centavo coins (5, 10, 25, 50) show the Republic effigy (female personification) or Southern Cross. Real coins (R$1) show Republic or commemorative designs.
Brazil honors women via street names, schools, stamps, and the "Mulheres Brasileiras" coin series (commemorative) — but not on circulating banknotes.
