There was a total of 2.5 million 2 Cordobas banknotes printed for the 1945 Series that were released through several decrees, there is also two different serial number (6 & 7 digit) varieties. Initially there was only 200,000 authorised to be placed into circulation through executive decree #3 on the 10th of December 1946. The design was a continuation from the previous 1941 issue (P92a).
