Interesting fact
The 1 Décimo 1891 coin from Chile was designed by the Chilean artist and engraver, Pedro Subercaseaux. He was a prominent artist in Chile during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, and his work can be found on many Chilean coins and banknotes from that time period. The coin's design features an image of a condor, which is a symbol of Chile and represents freedom and power. The condor is surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves, which is a common motif in Chilean coinage. The coin's obverse side features the coat of arms of Chile, which includes a star, a condor, and a shield with the country's motto, "Por la razón o la fuerza" (By reason or by force).
