New 50 Peso Note

[rrptownley]

Hence why the British pulled off the most ambitious long range bombing sortie of the post WW2 era, to deny the Miltary Junta use of its Dassault Mirage IIIs.

Veering back on topic, then off again:

Has anyone else noticed the increased amount of salaries/large payments being doled out in giant wads of 50's?

If they are running out of 100 peso bills and refusing to issue 200/500 peso bills, I assume the 50 peso bill will soon be scarce too. I doubt they will withdraw the Sarmiento bill and it will likely circulate together with the Malvinas bill.

For what it's worth, I still come across people who are loath to accept an Evita note. :mellow:

I think most analysts consider the attack on Stanley Airport to be more symbolic than it was effective on the ground. It let the Argentine milicos know the Brits weren't going to stand down.

While we wait for a new 200 or 500 peso note , the government has brought out a new 50 peso note

A really beautiful design and will soon be a collectors piece the world over.

Looking at the photo I thought some new islands had been founded off the falklands,and then i realised theyd cut and pasted the sandwich islands in there . Plus a bonus South American/Antarctica map for good measure.

I was just a little kid back then, but I remember clearly the news coverage when Black Bulk Six was unable to air refuel on its way back from the Falklands and had to do an emergency landing in Rio de Janeiro. The entire Pif-Paf and Jambock squadrons, which were already in high alert, were scrambled to intercept and escort the Vulcan bomber to the airport. The bomber ran out of fuel and literally glided until landing at the Galeao Airport, in Rio de Janeiro.

Also quite ironic that on the other side of the note is Antonio “El Gaucho" Rivero who was born a Uruguyan (only for his birthplace to eventually become part of Argentina) and ended up murdering 5 people on the islands which pretty much ended any chance Argentina of acquiring them because the British came back to them to settle permanently after his antics.

Look, I know it's confusing. But we didn't invent logic.

Our peronista overlords did.

The irony is taking Roca off one note and putting the Malivinas claim on another.

But Rivero was a symbol of Argentine resistance to the nasty imperialists!
