Interesting fact
The 1 Décimo coin from Chile was minted during a time of significant political and economic change in the country. The coin was introduced in 1867, just a few years after Chile had adopted a new constitution and became a republic. The coin's design, which features a depiction of the Chilean coat of arms, was meant to symbolize the country's newfound independence and unity. Additionally, the coin's silver content and small denomination made it accessible to everyday people, which helped to promote trade and commerce in Chile during this period.
