📦 Included Banknote(s):

  1. 1985 Mexico 1,000 Pesos (P-85b)


📖 History and Significance:
Issued by the Banco de México during the 1980s, this note pays tribute to Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, a 17th-century nun, self-taught scholar, and acclaimed poet of the Baroque period. She is celebrated as the first published feminist of the New World and remains a towering figure in Mexican cultural history. This era of high-denomination currency was eventually phased out and replaced by the "Nuevo Peso" in 1993, making these classic notes highly collectible today.


🎨 Design Details:
The obverse features a distinguished portrait of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz wearing her traditional habit, seated at a desk with an open book and a quill pen, symbolizing her literary genius. The reverse displays a stunning, highly detailed engraving of the Plaza de Santo Domingo in Mexico City, capturing the magnificent colonial architecture of the era.
