Question
Are 3, 5, 10,20,50,and 100 bills that say republi of texas on them, but they also say copy on them worth anything? Does a dollar bill that says republica federativa do brasil and has the word real and serial number on it worth any money?

Answer
Hello Cynthia,                            

The replica Texas notes are not valuable; they are produced for fairs, Currency clubs and for sale as souvenirs.
The ones you have are fairly accurate in the artwork and images on them.

I am not an expert on foreign notes you may want to try another expert with this but I do see them at the coin shows often.
Foreign notes such as these are likely worth only a dollar to a collector in this country.  

Sorry I could not be more help.

Good Luck
