Uruguay's shift to aluminium coinage in the 1960s was a direct response to chronic inflation that had been eroding the peso's purchasing power since the early postwar years. By 1965, the metal value of the older cupro-nickel pieces was threatening to exceed their face value — a familiar problem for small-denomination coinage across Latin America in this period. Aluminium solved the immediate cost problem but signaled how badly the monetary situation had deteriorated.
