Argentina 2 pesos. From the Pioneers of the South series issued on 28/06/1975 (sg:AR1472).  Showing the cutter 'Luisito' and Navy Lieutenant Colonel Luis Piedra Buena, whose actions in southern Argentina consolidated national sovereignty at a time when these lands were virtually uninhabited and were not protected by the state. His biographers consider him one of the most important heroes of Patagonia. His Wikipedia entry ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luis_Piedrabuena?wprov=sfla1) documents a seamingly selfless resume where he rescued hundreds of shipwrecks! In March 1873 he succumbed to his own shipwreck, 'traveling with the schooner "Spore" to Isla de los Estados he was surprised by a terrible storm that drove the ship onto the rocks and wrecked it. From the remains of the ship with much difficulty he built the small cutter "Luisito",' it took 57 days to build with few tools, he sailed it 600 miles home rescuing a further two ships on the way!!  |
