Informazioni aggiuntive	Uruguay's 2003 monetary reform replaced the peso uruguayo at a rate of 1,000 to 1, collapsing denominations that had been inflated into irrelevance over decades of economic turbulence. Trial or prueba strikes were produced in silver for collector and archive purposes, documenting proposed designs before the new coinage entered production in base metals. The 2003 crisis year is significant — Uruguay was still recovering from a severe banking collapse triggered in part by contagion from Argentina's 2001–2002 meltdown, which wiped out a substantial portion of Uruguayan savings held in dollar-denominated accounts.
