| Anmerkungen |
The Banco de la Província de Buenos Ayres had a complicated relationship with the American Bank Note Company throughout the 1860s — multiple series were contracted in New York precisely because local printing infrastructure couldn't meet the security standards demanded after a wave of counterfeiting that had badly undermined confidence in provincially issued paper. This 40 Centésimos Fuertes denomination sits in an awkward monetary moment: the "fuertes" system was already under pressure by 1869, with peso moneda corriente and peso fuerte exchange rates creating chronic confusion in everyday commerce.
The PS# prefix indicates this is a privately issued provincial bank note rather than a national emission — significant because Buenos Aires province and the Argentine confederation had only recently resolved their bitter monetary and political rivalry.
