The 1992 100 Nuevos Pesos belongs to the transition series issued after Mexico's 1993 monetary reform lopped three zeros off the old peso — "nuevos" was the government's way of distinguishing the revalued currency from its inflation-ravaged predecessor. Banxico printed this series in-house, having developed substantial internal printing capacity by the early 1990s.
The "Printed: 30.04.1945" date in the catalog data is almost certainly a keying error and should be verified against the actual note.
