Argentina's provincial bond notes — the so-called "cuasimonedas" — emerged from the 2001–2002 financial collapse, when the federal government froze bank deposits and provinces lost access to central bank financing. Tucumán was among the fourteen provinces that resorted to issuing their own quasi-currency to meet payroll and social obligations. These circulated alongside federal pesos and were nominally redeemable at par, though public confidence varied considerably by province and by date of issue.

Tucumán's series was formally withdrawn and redeemed by 2004 as part of the national consolidation program. Surviving circulated examples typically show heavy use — these were working notes, not saved.
