Interesting fact
The Pattern 5 Pesos 1938 from Chile made of Silver is a rare and unique coin, with only 100,000 minted. It was designed by the Chilean artist, Luis Oyarzun, and features the Andes mountain range on one side and the Chilean coat of arms on the other. The coin was never officially released into circulation, making it a highly sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
