Chile
Valdivia. City Emergency Issue 2 Reales 1822 VF35 NGC, Chinumpa mint, KM2. A fascinating issue, produced years after Chile had declared independence from Spain, yet made to pay the town garrison as regional skirmishes waged on. Rare today, this coin shows deep tone over the surfaces and the overall crudeness often observed on emergency issues. Little actual wear is seen however, and the centering is ideal. Overall, a superior example.
