| Opmerkingen |
Uruguay's 1930 constitution centennial commemorated a century since the country's first constitution of 1830, adopted just years after independence from Brazil. This note was engraved in Paris by Georges Hourriez on the obverse and Eugène Gaspérini on the reverse — a division of labor typical of Banque de France commissions, where different engravers handled each face. Serveau, who designed the reverse, was a prolific French illustrator and poster artist whose work appeared on several Latin American issues of the period through the same printing house.
Pick 17 is the only denomination in the series produced specifically for the centennial occasion.
