| Comments |
Peru's nuevo sol series was introduced in 1991 to replace the inti, which had been destroyed by hyperinflation that peaked at over 7,600% annually in 1990. The 50-denomination note occupies the workhorse tier of daily commerce — high enough to matter, low enough to circulate hard — and examples from the 2005–2006 printing window tend to show significant wear accordingly.
Pick 180 sits within a long-running series that underwent gradual security upgrades across its print runs without changing the fundamental plate design.
