[QUOTE="Eduard, post: 2949941, member: 8959"]Thank you for posting your that medal, H8_modern. Very interesting and historical. It would be interesting to know if it is a contemporary issue, or a later commemorative strike. I think it is actually contemporary and struck in 1821 on occasion of the declaration of independence of Peru. (Later commemorative strikes all actually bear later dates). Numismat, that is a great example of the Republica Sud Peruana 8 Reales:). I would really like to add a similar example to my collection. Here are two more issues from the early years of the Chilean Republic: a 2 escudos from 1834, and a 1 escudo of the hand-on-book type from 1838 (one year type). I specially like the motifs of the 2 escudos with pillar and volcanoes, somewhat similar to the 1817-1834 Volcano peso. This type was also struck in 8, 4 and 1 escudo denomination. 2 Escudos 1834: [ATTACH=full]720357[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]720358[/ATTACH] 1 Escudo 1838: [ATTACH=full]720360[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]720361[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
