This note belongs to the "Pesos Argentinos" transitional period — except it doesn't. The 50,000 Pesos denomination was part of the outgoing Pesos series, issued during the final stretch of military junta rule and the catastrophic inflation that made such face values routine. Argentina's central bank was printing high-denomination notes almost continuously through this period simply to keep pace with a currency losing value faster than new issues could be distributed.
The Casa de Moneda plant in Buenos Aires handled the full series domestically. A single watermark as the primary security feature reflects the stripped-back specification typical of high-volume emergency-scale production runs.
