Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1921-1922 Chilean 1 Peso coin made of silver is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in Chile, known as the "Great Depression" of the 1920s. Despite the economic challenges, the coin's production continued, and it remained in circulation until 1953, when it was replaced by a new design. This coin's design features the Chilean national emblem on one side and the denomination on the other, and its silver content makes it a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
