Río Negro was one of several Argentine provinces that issued quasi-money during the 1990s under the Convertibility Plan — a legally peculiar situation in which provinces, barred from running deficits in the conventional sense, resorted to printing their own circulating bonds to pay salaries and suppliers. These instruments were nominally redeemable at par with the peso but traded at discounts in practice. The Casa de Moneda printing attribution is consistent with several provincial emissions of this period, lending them a surface credibility that the underlying fiscal reality did not always support.
