The 500 Nuevos Pesos denomination sat at the upper end of Uruguay's circulating series at the time of issue, a period when the country was still managing the economic fallout from the 1982 financial crisis and subsequent peso devaluations. The "Nuevos Pesos" system — introduced in 1975 at a rate of 1,000 old pesos — was itself approaching obsolescence by 1990; within three years it would be replaced by the Peso Uruguayo at 1,000 to 1, effectively erasing four decimal places of inflation-driven depreciation in a single redenomination.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement here is unremarkable for the region — they printed extensively for Latin American central banks throughout this period — but the watermark remains the sole listed security feature, modest even by early 1990s standards.
