I haven&#039;t heard anyone mention a Cacique of this particular size, although it certainly is within the broad range of sizes that I have seen reported that they were minted in. </p><p><br /></p><p>Also, the reverse is a type that I never have been able to find a duplicate image of anywhere.&nbsp; As to the date of minting, I can only say that I was given this in the summer of 1981, so it was minted before that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I probably will be selling this one soon.</p><p><br /></p><p>If anyone has some additional information on this exact coin, let me know.</p><p>Here are some images of the coin that I have, scanned on a flatbed scanner.</p><p>Also attached is an image of the jewelry box it came in.</p><p><br /></p><p>Thanks in advance,</p><p>Don Lorenzo[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
