Entre Ríos was one of several Argentine provinces that issued its own quasi-currency during the 2001–2002 financial collapse, when the federal government froze bank deposits under the corralito and provincial administrations ran out of pesos to pay salaries and suppliers. These notes — formally called bonos — were legal tender within the province for tax payments and public transactions, though private acceptance was uneven and often grudging.
Casa de Moneda's involvement gave the series a degree of physical credibility that some other provincial emissions lacked. Several provinces resorted to far cruder production methods during the same crisis.
