| Opmerkingen |
The Banco de Buenos Ayres was established in 1822 as the first bank in the Río de la Plata region, and its early notes were among the first fiduciary paper money issued in what would become Argentina. By 1826 the institution was under severe strain — the costs of the Cisplatine War against Brazil had drained the treasury, and the bank was forced to suspend specie payments that same year, a suspension that would last decades and permanently erode public confidence in its paper.
Printed locally rather than in Europe, which was unusual for the period and reflects both the urgency of production and the geographic isolation of Buenos Aires from established security printers.
