What is 5000 Brazilian cruzados worth?

Answer 1

hate to break it to you but probably nothing. apparently in the late 80's Brazil was going through a lot of economic hardships, which led to incredibly high inflation. like having to take a wheelbarrow of cash to the store to buy a stick of gum kind of inflation. anyways, the cruzado was changed to the cruzado novo (new cruzado) where they shaved off a few zeros, (i.e, 10,000 cruzados=10 cruzados novos), then that was switched out for a cruzeiro, and that was finally exchanged for the currency Brazil is using currently, the Real. yeah my grandma was asking me the same thing, she has over 15,000 cruzados, but that's not even enough to equal one american dollar.
