Aanvullende informatie	This issue coincides with Uruguay's postwar industrial expansion and the presidency of Luis Batlle Berres, whose neo-Batllista program aggressively extended state control over public utilities and manufacturing. The copper-nickel alloy was a deliberate shift away from the wartime material compromises that had plagued earlier issues — Uruguay, lacking domestic copper-nickel production, had to source alloy composition through import agreements that fluctuated with global commodity prices throughout the run. The series ran through 1959, the same year Uruguay's economy began its long deterioration and the Colorado Party lost power for the first time in nearly a century.
