200 Pesos Uruguayos

Uruguay's 1990s currency reform replaced the peso with the peso uruguayo at 1,000:1, a redenomination that took years to filter fully through the note series. This 200 peso uruguayo denomination sits in the middle of a redesigned family printed by De La Rue during a period when Uruguay was managing the tail end of chronic inflation rather than a fresh crisis — a maintenance issue rather than an emergency.

De La Rue's London production for this series was fairly routine contract work. Nothing technically unusual has been documented for P#77 specifically — no major plate errors, no known overprint variants.
