Comments

Entre Ríos was one of several Argentine provinces that issued emergency quasi-currency during the 2001–2002 convertibility collapse, when the federal government's pesification and corralito restrictions left provincial administrations unable to meet payroll and basic obligations. These notes circulated alongside federal currency as de facto legal tender within the province, accepted for tax payments and public services under provincial decree.

Printed locally in Paraná rather than by an established security printer, production quality varied across the series — a known issue with several provincial emergency emissions of this period.
