This copper-nickel two pesos "papel moneda" was struck for [[Colombia]] in 1907, 1910 and 1914. These coins were issued to retire paper money printed during the civil war of 1899-1903, hence the "p/m" marked on the reverse. The chaos of that civil war enabled the United States to engineer Panamanian independence. They later circulated equal to the copper-nickel two centavos of 1918-47 (KM 198). They are today very scarce in nice condition. The second specimen was lot 1721 in Sedwick Treasure Auction 27 (Winter Park, FL, May 2020), where it sold for $142.80.
