| Opmerkingen |
The Banco Comercial de Corrientes was one of several provincial banks that emerged in Argentina during the 1850s and 1860s, operating largely outside the regulatory reach of Buenos Aires. Corrientes province had a long history of political friction with the federal government, and its banking institutions reflected that autonomy — issuing their own paper currency with limited coordination at the national level.
The "Pesos Fuertes" denomination signals this note predates Argentina's 1876 currency consolidation. By 1867, the province was also absorbing the economic shocks of the War of the Triple Alliance, which had begun two years earlier and whose front lines ran through Corrientes itself — the first Argentine province to be occupied by Paraguayan forces in 1865.
