They represented the breadth of the landscape and growth as an idea of progress.These pieces were minted in the Sociedad de la Estado de Moneda in Argentina and the note and coin recorders Ms. Monica P. Galera and Mr. Juan D. Castillo participated.

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the foundation of Comodoro Rivadavia, a city located in the Patagonia region of Argentina. The coin's design features an image of the city's founder, Manuel Rivadavia, on one side, and the coat of arms of Comodoro Rivadavia on the other. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for numismatists interested in Argentine history and culture.
