I have a soft spot for origami paper cranes.
Read or watch about "Sadako Sasaki and the Thousand Paper Cranes".

That seems reasonable in a larger society but isn't the point that, at time of issue, those workers were the only human inhabitants of the islands. That the notes contnued to circulate after other settlers arrived makes it clear they were in general circulation.

He wasn't a monarch, so I don't see any reason to. United Provinces of the Río de la Plata (1820-1831) seems to be right according to here.
?
Ruling authorities encompass way more things than monarchs.
We could for instance have him as governor (it is one of the 100 titles we can attach to ruling authorities), attached to a ruler group named “United Provinces of the Río de la Plata” which would become a sub issuer name, making it searchable in the selector of issuers
I didn't know non-royal leaders were used as ruling authorities. However, according to the link, he was only Governor from 1829. Since his signature is on the notes, his name should definitely feature somewhere on the page to make it searchable. Hibernia is the referee for the Falklands, so perhaps we can let him make the appropriate changes?

Well, we have periods like wars or regimes, but also all types of nobilities and as well governors, ministers, bishops, satraps, regents, abbots, etc etc etc

His opinion is definitely welcome but only Admins can create ruling authorities or banknote signatures so we'll need to receive a request. It is precisely why I relaunched this thread.
My undrstanding of the Falkland Islands in this era suggests that ‘United Provinces of the Rio de la Plata (1810-1831)’ is the appropriate ruling authority for this note.

I will see if I can get a translation done to fill the information out a bit.
Only one image seems to exist of this - I have come across several instances of it - so it is unlikely that we will source a reverse image, or improve on the existing obverse.
