| Opmerkingen |
The Banco del Paraguay was established in 1871 under a national charter — one of the first institutional attempts to rebuild a financial system after the catastrophic War of the Triple Alliance, which had killed an estimated half to two-thirds of Paraguay's total population and left the country without functioning economic infrastructure. These small-denomination notes were part of a fractional currency series intended to address the chronic shortage of hard coin in everyday commerce.
Litografía Nacional in Buenos Aires handled the printing, a practical necessity given that Paraguay had no domestic printing capacity capable of producing banknotes at the time. The "Fuertes" designation distinguished the currency from earlier devalued emissions.
