Commenti	Uruguay's 1968 monetary reform was drastic: the peso was rebased at 1000:1, making this 10,000-peso note worth just ten of the new pesos uruguayos the moment the changeover took effect. The note was already obsolete before most examples had circulated meaningfully. Thomas De La Rue printed the series in London, which was standard practice for Uruguay across several mid-century issues — domestic printing capacity at the Banco Central simply wasn't adequate for high-denomination production. Watermark security only, no security thread — modest by De La Rue's own contemporary standards for other clients.
