Uruguay 1939 (1967 Authorization) - Banco Central del Uruguay 50 Pesos Serie D Specimen, Specimen No. 2 (Pick 42As)

Red specimen markings continue across the reverse, forming a complete two-sided control format. Their application confirms that the entire finished note, rather than a single-face proof or partial production trial, was prepared as institutional reference material. The preserved relationship between the Indigenous portrait, Artigas watermark, historical reverse, and later central bank authorization makes the note an especially clear record of continuity across two phases of Uruguay's monetary administration.
