    I'm so glad to see that there are new 5 peso coins, followed in the coming year, by 10 peso coins. Love the new plant-themed coins. And I hope the govt mints plenty of those 1-peso jacarandás, so checking out at Carrefour or Coto won't include the usual cashiers' begging for the coins that even huge supermarkets can't get their hands on!

    Some people had to complain that flowers and animals was a threat to the national identity! I find them very nice.


    I don't think Evita was important enough to make it on a bill, and I believe it was just propaganda. Animals are really impartial and it helps raise awareness on the local fauna and flora.

    I still have to see the newest 1,000 ARS bill!
