The "C.N.B.S. INSPECTOR" overprint identifies notes that passed through the Comisión Nacional Bancaria y de Seguros — Mexico's banking and insurance regulatory body — as part of a verification or audit process. Notes returned from inspection were stamped before re-entering or being withheld from circulation, making this a bureaucratic artifact rather than a printing variant.
P#82 is already a short-lived issue; the 2000 Peso denomination was a product of Mexico's severe inflationary spiral in the early 1980s, when peso purchasing power collapsed following the 1982 debt crisis and forced devaluations. The overprinted examples are considerably scarcer than plain circulation stock.
