Interesting fact
The ½ Inti (Pachacutec) coin from Peru, made of Silver (.925) and weighing 16.81g, features an image of Pachacutec, a powerful Inca emperor who ruled from 1438 to 1472. He is known for his military conquests and his efforts to centralize and strengthen the Inca Empire. The coin was issued in 1989 as a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not intended for general circulation but rather as a collector's item. This coin is a unique piece of history that honors the legacy of Pachacutec and showcases the rich cultural heritage of Peru.
