The Banco del Paraguay y Río de La Plata was a private commercial bank chartered in Buenos Aires with operations extending into Paraguay — a binational arrangement that was already commercially awkward by the late 1880s. The Compañía Sud-Americana de Billetes de Banco, the Buenos Aires-based security printer behind this note, produced the bulk of River Plate currency during this period and held something close to a regional monopoly on the work.
The 1.25 peso fuerte denomination is the oddity here. Fractional values of this kind were typically driven by coin shortages, where small-denomination notes substituted for silver pieces that had been hoarded or exported.
