At right, the allegorical figure holding the Constitution represents republican legality and continuity.

Uruguay 1939 Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 100 pesos specimen Pick 39cs Serie D with red diagonal SPECIMEN overprint and red De La Rue oval cancellation stamps on obverse and reverse

Uruguay 1939 - Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 100 Pesos Specimen, Red Overprint, Serie D (Pick 39cs)

The repeated Specimen No. 2 designation is central to the significance of this piece. Because the identical number appears on both the red-marked and black-marked examples, the numbering evidently operated within separate control, distribution, or presentation groups rather than as one universal sequence covering every specimen format. The pair therefore documents more than a simple difference in ink color. It reveals that Thomas De La Rue and Company Limited maintained parallel specimen states for the same denomination, series, and numbered reference position. Read more →

Uruguay 1939 Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 100 pesos specimen Pick 39cs Serie D with black diagonal SPECIMEN overprint and black De La Rue oval cancellation stamps on obverse and reverse

Uruguay 1939 - Banco de la Republica Oriental del Uruguay 100 Pesos Specimen, Black Overprint, Serie D (Pick 39cs)

The survival of both versions establishes that the black markings represent an intentional printer-controlled state rather than discoloration, fading, or variation caused by photography. Thomas De La Rue and Company Limited deliberately prepared separate red and black presentations of the same numbered Serie D reference note. The identical Specimen No. 2 inscription indicates that numbering was repeated within parallel specimen groups or handling channels, preserving the same reference position across more than one cancellation format.
