Azorean real
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The real was the currency of the Azores until 1911. It was equal to the Portuguese real. Copper coins were issued specifically for the Azores between 1829 and 1901 and Bank of Portugal notes were issued with the overstamp "Açôres" between 1905 and 1910. Although the Portuguese escudo replaced the real (1000 réis = 1 escudo) in 1911, the overstamped banknotes continued to circulate until 1932.
