Rare Key Date, Graded AU 58 🇨🇱

This striking silver Peso of 1862, minted in Santiago (So), bears the national motto “Por la Razón o la Fuerza” — “By Reason or by Force.” The obverse features a fierce condor with shield, while the reverse shows the plumed arms within a wreath, crowned with the iconic five-point star of Chilean heraldry. 🦅

Weighing 26g and spanning 37mm, this piece is a robust example of 19th-century Latin American coinage. Officially catalogued as KM# 129, only 103,000 pieces were struck in this year — making it a seldom-seen rarity. This exact date is Numista-rated as Rare, and among all certified examples, just five are graded higher than this superb NGC AU 58 specimen. 📈

Light original toning and excellent detail across both sides make this an exceptional find for collectors of Latin American coinage or rare silver crowns. ✨
