Ship's bill of lading for Peruvian coins being shipped in 1881 on the steamship Pizarro bound for Callao, Peru, from Arica, Chile. 13-3/8" x 7". A standard document of its time with vignette of the sidewheel steamer above a table to the left and the "fine print" to the right with the cargo of "1 sack with 500 silver soles" hand-written into the blanks above date and signature, nice condition but with wax seal on left having melted through the page, leaving a hole, very interesting combination of coins and shipping.
