Oxandaburu y Garvino was a private commercial house operating in Jujuy, in the far northwest of Argentina near the Bolivian border — which explains both the denomination in Bolivian pesos and the cross-border commercial logic behind issuing private scrip at all. The Argentine national banking framework had not yet reached the province in any meaningful way in 1867, leaving local merchants to fill the gap themselves.
PS# designation confirms this is catalogued as a private issue, not a state bank note. Jujuy private issues from this period are genuinely rare survivors.
