The contemporary version appeared in 1999 after redenomination at a rate of 1000: 1.

The Argentine peso (sign $, code ARS) is the currency used for payment within Argentina. The coins are called centavo. One peso equals 100 centavo.

It has been in circulation since 1992 when the old currency – austral – had been removed. Banknotes are designed with portraits of outstanding statesmen. 10 peso has an image of General Manuel Belgrano, and the 100 peso note has one of the first ladies of Argentina, Eva Perón. There are notes dedicated to the environment and fauna protection: with a jaguar, a blue whale, and the Falkland Islands.
