Argentina Set of 4 Coins 1, 2, 5 & 10 Pesos Trees 2017–2020 KM 186–189 UNC
The Argentina Trees 2017–2020 set brings together four modern circulating denominations:
1 Peso • 2 Pesos • 5 Pesos • 10 Pesos
The coins belong to the Árboles de la República Argentina series, created around characteristic tree species from different regions of the country.
Preserved in UNC condition, the complete denomination set provides an attractive representation of Argentina’s modern circulating coinage and botanical heritage.
Historical Background
Argentina introduced the Trees of the Argentine Republic family as a new generation of circulating coins during the late 2010s.
Rather than focusing on political personalities, military figures or conventional national emblems, the series celebrates the country’s native and characteristic flora.
The four denominations collectively represent different Argentine landscapes, from subtropical regions in the north to the forests of Patagonia.
The series also reflects an important period in Argentina’s monetary history, when inflation increased the importance of higher-value coins in everyday circulation.

1 Peso – Jacarandá
The 1 Peso denomination features the Jacarandá, famous for its spectacular violet-blue flowers.
The tree is particularly recognisable in Argentine urban landscapes, including the avenues and parks of Buenos Aires.
2 Pesos – Palo Borracho
The 2 Pesos coin represents the Palo Borracho, a distinctive South American tree known for its characteristic swollen trunk.
It is one of the most visually recognisable species represented in the Argentine tree series.
5 Pesos – Arrayán
The 5 Pesos denomination features the Arrayán, a tree strongly associated with the forests of Argentine Patagonia.
It is particularly recognisable for its smooth, distinctive bark and provides a botanical connection with southern Argentina.
10 Pesos – Calden
The 10 Pesos coin features the Caldén, a characteristic Argentine tree associated with the central regions of the country.
As the highest denomination in this four-coin group, it completes the botanical journey represented across the series.
Trees of the Argentine Republic
The four denominations create a particularly attractive thematic collection because each highlights a different species:
1 Peso – Jacarandá
2 Pesos – Palo Borracho
5 Pesos – Arrayán
10 Pesos – Caldén
Together, they showcase the botanical diversity of Argentina while creating a coherent modern coin series.
The use of trees rather than political personalities gives the collection a distinctive identity within modern Latin American numismatics.
