Question

I have a 1000.00 bill banco centralde reserve del peru dated nov 1981. where can i find out about it?

Answer 1

That bill has gone out of circulation. It came out just before hyperinflation started in Peru. After that bill was issued, there came the "Intis". Your bill equalled 1 Inti. After the 1st government of Alan García and about 6,000% inflation, the "Nuevo Sol" came out and 1 Nuevo Sol equaled 1 million Intis. If I remember correclty, that bill was a nice one, before money started looking like Monopoly money.
