| Opmerkingen |
The Confederación Argentina was the rump state that existed after Buenos Aires province seceded in 1852 following Urquiza's defeat of Rosas at Caseros. This note was issued not by a conventional central bank but directly by the Ministerio de Hacienda — the treasury itself — reflecting the Confederation's chronic inability to establish a stable banking infrastructure in Paraná, its provisional capital. The arrangement was fiscally desperate from the start.
Buenos Aires and the Confederation ran parallel monetary systems through most of the 1850s, with the Confederation perpetually short of hard currency and heavily dependent on customs revenue from Rosario. Treasury-issued paper of this type rarely survived normal use in good condition; the Confederation itself ceased to exist after Buenos Aires reincorporated following the Battle of Pavón in 1861, and redemption of its paper obligations was neither swift nor guaranteed.
