In 2017 Argentina released the first two denominations of a new design series: the 1 peso and 5 pesos coins. In 2018 the final coins of the set were issued, the 2 and 10 pesos.

The set was unusual, in that it depicted trees and flowers in naive or 'faux naive' style, which was deliberately simplistic or childlike. I had never seen this style used before for plants on circulation coins, though some European countries have depicted their kings or queens in this fashion: see Stylised portraits.
