The one sol denomination was originally occupied by the silver sol, struck 1888-1917. It was superseded by a billon coin in 1922, which was replaced by a brass type in 1943 during World War Two. This type, issued 1943-65, is common altho unspotted uncirculated specimens are scarce. It is accompanied by brass five, ten and twenty centavos. Various brass one sol coins, of ever shrinking diameter, were struck until 1981.
