Argentina - New $100 Notes

Oh dear (http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/world_now/2012/07/evita-argentina-peso-note.html)

Even more frightening is the statue that was stolen from the Wax Museum shown in the photo, holding the exemplar.

It could have been worse I suppose. :rolleyes:

Now I know the reason why the bank only had 50 peso notes the other day.

Well, the son is too large to fit on a banknote, and the holy ghost would require embossing for the nose, and the Brazilian printshop refused to re-tool the machines for free.

Anyone got one of. These yet? Or a 00 misprint? It will be like the 2 peso coin a rare sight.

The new note should have been a $500, or at least a $200....

:rolleyes:

Seems they have cocked it up at the printers.....the first batch hasn't passed the quality control check.

But haven't you heard? Inflation is a myth. Why would you ever need anything larger than a $100 peso note? :)

I was thinking the same thing!!!. With $100 you can buy just 3kg of beef :td:

I thought they were going to issue $700 pesos notes, to exchange 1:1 for blue Franklins.

what beef are we talking about....?

If you want to buy proper Tenderloin, 100 pesos will not even buy you 1 kilo of that.... :rolleyes:
