Paraguay's 1000 Guaraníes series of the 1990s was printed by Oberthur Fiduciaire at a time when the French firm was consolidating its position across Latin American central bank contracts, often competing directly with De La Rue and the American Banknote Company. The FCO printer code designates Oberthur's facility in Chantilly, distinguishing output from their other production sites.
The reverse carries the denomination spelled out in Guaraní — the indigenous Tupí-Guaraní language that shares its name with the currency — a bilingual convention enshrined in Paraguayan law, where both Spanish and Guaraní hold official status.
