Peru 11 Pcs Set Inti UNC Booklet 10 50 100 500 1K 5K 10K 50K 100000 500000 1000000

Eleven notes. Six years. Seven million percent inflation. This is the complete Peruvian Inti series — every denomination ever issued, from the humble 10-inti note of 1985 to the staggering 1,000,000-inti note of 1990. Together they tell the full arc of one of Latin America's most dramatic economic collapses: a currency born to replace a broken sol, that itself collapsed so completely it was replaced at a rate of one million to one. Each note is Uncirculated, presented in a collector booklet, and features a different hero of Peruvian history on the obverse — writers, presidents, rebels, admirals, physicians, and poets — alongside scenes of Peru's agricultural and industrial soul on the reverse.

The Inti was introduced in 1985 at 1,000 soles = 1 inti. By 1990, annual inflation had reached 7,649%. By demonetization in 1991, the entire 1,000,000-inti note was worth exactly one nuevo sol cent. This set is a complete, tangible record of that journey — eleven snapshots of a nation in freefall, each one a masterwork of security printing.
