Interesting fact

The Pattern 2000 Cruzeiros coin was designed by Brazilian artist and sculptor, Marcello D'Agostino. The coin features a unique design that showcases the theme of environmental conservation and sustainable development, which was a key focus of the 1992 Earth Summit held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The coin's design incorporates elements of nature, such as leaves and branches, and also features the outline of a globe, symbolizing the international community's commitment to protecting the environment.
