Comment

Mint: Compañía Filatélica Mundial de Panamá (World Philatelic Company of Panama)

Although when this coin would belong to the 2nd Córdoba currency due to its minting date, it was minted following the specs of the previous coins from similar series and was to be placed in the 1st Córdoba along them by the issuing authority with a face value of 50 instead of 10,000 from those that were minted under the 2nd.

Interesting fact
