Peruvian Soles

Banknotes from 10 soles to 200 soles are currently in use as a means of payment in Peru. They were issued by the Lima-based Banco Central de Reserva del Perú in 2011. All Peruvian Sol banknotes from this series are dated '13 de Agosto de 2009' (13 August 2009). In addition to current Peruvian Sol banknotes we also exchange Peruvian Soles and Céntimos coins, withdrawn Nuevos Soles banknotes (1991-2006), demonetized Peruvian Inti banknotes (1985-1991) and demonetized Peruvian Soles de Oro banknotes (1863-1985).

The Peruvian Inti was Peru's national currency from 1985 to 1991. During this time, Peru went through a period of hyperinflation. Prices went up to such an extent that banknotes of 5 Million Intis were printed in 1991, where until 1986 the 1000 Intis banknote was the highest denomination. The Peruvian Inti was replaced by the Nuevo Sol in 1991, at a rate of 1 Million Intis to 1 Nuevo Sol. Regarding the value of Peruvian Intis: Peruvian Intis have no monetary value. We buy your leftover Peruvian Inti banknotes for the limited collectable value they have. In addition to Peruvian Inti banknotes, we also exchange demonetized Soles de Oro banknotes (1863-1985),  current Peruvian Soles banknotes, Peruvian coins and the older series withdrawn Peruvian Nuevos Soles banknotes.

The Sol, also called Sol de Oro, was Peru's national currency from 1863 to 1985, when it was replaced by the Peruvian Inti at a rate of 1000 Soles de Oro to 1 Inti. Soles de Oro banknotes are obsolete and can no longer be exchanged for a monetary value. However we are able to convert them to cash for their collectable value. In addition to Soles de Oro banknotes we exchange current Peruvian Sol banknotes, Peruvian coins, Inti banknotes and Nuevos Soles banknotes (1991-2006).

Coins from 5 soles to 5 céntavos are currently accepted as a means of payment in the Latin American country of Peru. The céntimo is the subunit of the Peruvian sol: 100 céntimos are the equivalent of 1 sol, the Spanish word for 'sun'. Peruvian Sol coins are issued by the Lima-based Banco Central de Reserva del Perú. All current sol coins have Peru's coat of arms on the back side, featuring Peru's national animal the vicuña (a wild ancestor of domesticated alpacas), a cinchona tree and the cornucopia (horn of plenty) with coins spilling from it. This makes the Peruvian coins unique because they are the only coins in the world containing an image of coins. In addition to Peruvian Sol coins we also exchange Peruvian Sol current banknotes, withdrawn Peruvian Sol banknotes,  demonetized Peruvian Inti banknotes (1985-1991) and demonetized Peruvian Soles de Oro banknotes (1863-1985).

This series of Peruvian Nuevos Soles banknotes was issued during the Monetary Reform of 1991 in Peru, when 1,000,000 intis were replaced by 1 nuevo sol. Issued by the Lima-based Banco Central de Reserva del Peru, these withdrawn Peruvian Nuevos Soles banknotes feature a national hero on the front side and a landmark on the back side. They were issued until 2006 and withdrawn from circulation in 2011. We can exchange these discontinued Peruvian Sol banknotes.
