Vintage Banknote Chile 10 Escudos Watermark President Balmaceda Independence

The Escudo was a transitional currency used strictly between 1960 and 1975 before hyperinflation forced Chile to return to the Peso system, making these short-lived banknotes highly collectible windows into economic history. Features the portrait of President José Manuel Balmaceda and the historical painting "El Abrazo de Maipú," which marks the decisive victory that secured Chile's independence from Spanish rule.
