Provincia de Jujuy sits in Argentina's far northwest, landlocked against the Bolivian border — one of the country's most economically marginal provinces in the early twentieth century. Provincial notes of this period were typically issued to address chronic shortages of small federal currency in remote regions where Buenos Aires-issued money rarely penetrated in sufficient quantity. By 1905, the national government had technically unified Argentine currency under the Caja de Conversión, making provincial emissions legally questionable at best.
PS prefix in the Pick system signals this as a private or quasi-governmental scrip issue, and Jujuy examples from this series are genuinely scarce in any condition — provincial archives suggest low original print runs.
