Off-metal strike. Struck on 5 Pesos planchet.Interesting fact
The Pattern 1 Peso coin from Chile, struck on a 5 Pesos planchet from 2002 to 2011, has a unique feature that sets it apart from other coins. The coin's outer ring is made of a material called aluminum bronze, which is a combination of aluminum and bronze. This makes the coin lighter in weight than other coins made of solid bronze, and also gives it a distinctive color and texture.
