1 Centesimo Emergency Postal Script Issues

备注	In the late 1860s, Uruguay faced a severe shortage of small-denomination coins, a problem common across much of Latin America as metallic currency drained out of circulation through hoarding and export. The postal authority stepped in as an improvised solution, issuing adhesive postage stamp-like scrips for use as fractional currency. It was an unconventional arrangement — a postal administration functioning as a de facto monetary issuer — but not without precedent on the continent. The handstamp authentication was the only real control measure applied, and genuine examples without it exist, complicating attribution.
