Comments

The 100 Intis note belongs to Peru's short-lived Inti currency, introduced in February 1985 to replace the sol at a rate of 1,000 to one — itself a signal of how badly inflation had already eroded purchasing power. The Inti would survive only until 1991, when hyperinflation rendered it equally worthless and the nuevo sol took over.

Two separate printers produced this series: Bundesdruckerei in Berlin and Casa da Moeda do Brasil. Notes from each source share the same Pick reference but can differ in minor printing characteristics, making source attribution a point of interest for specialists working this issue.
