NOTE: We feature here a complete set of Chilean pesos of the design known as “Hoz y Martillo” (Sickle and Hammer) from 1895 to 1933, beginning with a very rare pattern for the year 1894. This design is distinct from the previous “Condor Pesos,” which ran from 1867 until 1891. This selection of “Hoz y Martillo” pesos in the highest possible grades presents a great opportunity for collectors to improve their collections or add missing dates.
