About this banknote

The Central Bank of the Argentine Republic issued the 50 pesos banknote (Pick 356) in 2003. This series was introduced to replace the previous 50 pesos note (Pick 350), which included the "Convertibles de Curso Legal" clause. The new series omitted this clause, reflecting changes in Argentina's monetary policy.

The obverse features a portrait of Domingo Faustino Sarmiento, Argentina's seventh president. The reverse depicts the Plaza de Mayo in Buenos Aires, including the Casa de Gobierno (Government House) and surrounding monuments. The banknote measures 155 x 65 mm and includes a watermark of Sarmiento.
