5 Pesos

Pick 359 belongs to the long-running Series C peso family introduced after Argentina's 2002 collapse and peso relaunch. By 2015 the 5 peso note was functionally worn out as a denomination — inflation had been eroding purchasing power for years, and the note's practical utility was minimal by the time these were being issued. The Central Bank kept printing them largely because removing small denominations mid-crisis invites its own political problems.

Casa de Moneda de la República Argentina printed the series domestically, as it had since the denomination's reintroduction. These mid-decade printings tend to circulate heavily and quickly degrade.
