Interesting fact
The 1 Peso coin from 1915-1917 was the first coin to feature the iconic Chilean national symbol, the condor, on its reverse side. The condor is a large South American bird known for its impressive wingspan and majestic appearance, and it has been a symbol of Chilean national pride for centuries. The inclusion of the condor on the coin was a deliberate choice made by the Chilean government to emphasize the country's unique identity and natural heritage.
