Argentina 1876 Banco de San Juan 5 Pesos Fuertes archival specimen printed by Bradbury Wilkinson, provincial private banknote, PMG 64 EPQ

Argentina 1876 - Banco de San Juan 5 Pesos Fuertes Specimen (S1881s)

The Banco de San Juan operated within Argentina’s interior Andean province during a period when provincial banks exercised near-sovereign authority over local credit and currency issuance. Under the Ley de Bancos Garantidos framework, these institutions were permitted to issue convertible paper backed by metallic reserves, supporting regional economies centered on mining, viticulture, mule transport, and inter-provincial trade. This decentralized system preceded the later consolidation of monetary authority in Buenos Aires and the emergence of national currency. Read more →
