Argentina Banknotes Catalog
The history of banknotes in Argentina is a fascinating journey through the country's economic and cultural evolution. From the first issues to the current banknotes, Argentine banknotes reflect the political, social and economic changes that the nation has undergone over the years.
Current banknotes in circulation
Argentina currently has a series of banknotes called "Fauna", which includes denominations of 10, 20, 50, 50, 100, 200, 500 and 1000 pesos. These banknotes feature images of native animals such as the hornero, guanaco, Andean condor and southern right whale. The introduction of this series in 2016 marked a significant change in the design of Argentine banknotes, moving away from the depictions of historical figures that predominated previously.
Historical banknotes and relevant milestones.
Among the most prominent historical banknotes is the "Peso Moneda Nacional", used from 1881 to 1969. During this period, banknotes were issued with images of heroes such as San Martín and Belgrano. An important milestone was the introduction of the "Peso Ley" in 1970, followed by the "Peso Argentino" in 1983 and the "Austral" in 1985, reflecting the country's economic challenges. In 1992, the "Convertible Peso" was implemented, which maintained a fixed parity with the US dollar until 2002, marking a significant period in Argentina's economic history.
