Peru 2010 sol KM-342

from the Mountain Groan Collection

In 2010, the Lima mint began a series of commemoratives honoring various sites and cultures of Peru. This one features the Estele de Raimondi. This denomination has also been used for silver commemoratives. In 1991, the currency was reformed, one nuevo sol = one million intis. Surprisingly enough, the nuevo sol has remained stable against the dollar (US$1 = S/. 2.77, October 2013, US$1 = S/. 3.63, January 2021).

Recorded mintage: 10,000,000.

Specification: 7.32 g, Copper-Nickel-zinc, 25.5 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM 342.
