Comments

The "pesos argentinos" denomination was a short-lived currency unit introduced in June 1983 as Argentina attempted to stabilize an economy shredded by hyperinflation — one peso argentino replaced 10,000 pesos ley 18.188. It lasted barely three years before the austral replaced it in 1985 at another ruinous conversion rate, making the entire peso argentino series a brief, failed chapter in a long monetary crisis rather than any real reform.

Casa de Moneda's output during this period was under severe pressure, printing notes faster than the economy could absorb them. The P#313 series consequently turns up frequently in circulated grades.
