San Martín died in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France, on August 17, 1850 — in voluntary exile, having spent his final decades deliberately absent from the political turmoil that consumed the republics he helped liberate. Argentina's decision to commemorate the 150th anniversary fell to a circulation piece rather than a dedicated commemorative, which says something about the budgetary priorities of a country then approaching the sovereign debt crisis that would detonate in December 2001.
The KM#130.2 designation distinguishes this plain-edge variety from the reeded KM#130.1, both struck simultaneously for the anniversary year.
