Argentina Issues Five New One-Peso Coins
Argentine President Cristina Fernández announced Thursday that the government will start circulating five new one-peso coins.
The Central Bank will add 300 million pesos (about $76 million) of the coins into the economy during the remainder of the year.
The first coins – totaling 60 million pesos – will start circulating Friday.
The coins aim to help celebrate the country’s bicentennial. They depict five of Argentina’s areas, including the Northwest (Pucará de Tilcara), the Northeast (El Palmar de Colón), Cuyo (Cerro Aconcagua), the Pampas (Mar del Plata) and Patagónica (the Perito Moreno glacier).
Workers at the country’s innumerable Chinese supermarkets will surely appreciate the additional change.

Why? For what reason? Who cares? Is everyone supposed to memorize what the coins look like, so we will be able to differenciate between the authentic and the counterfeit? Just picture Disco cashiers inspecting each coin to see if it’s real. HELP!!!!

For what reason? The bicentennial, of course! I guess in the US the cashiers have the same problem: http://www.usmint.gov/about_the_mint/coinLibrary/
