| 正面描述 | The obverse displays the Peruvian coat of arms divided into three quarters within a beaded border: the upper-left quarter depicts a vicuña passant to the right against a horizontally lined field; the upper-right quarter shows a cinchona tree (quina) in an unlined field; and the lower half presents a cornucopia and a horn of plenty reclining against a horizontally lined background. The shield is rendered without external supporters or crest, occupying the full central field of the coin. |

The Republic of North Peru was a short-lived state proclaimed in 1836 when Andrés de Santa Cruz's Peruvian-Bolivian Confederation fractured the country, with the north briefly maintaining its own governmental apparatus before reunification. Coinage from this entity spans only a handful of years, making any survivor genuinely scarce by the arithmetic of its existence alone.
KM#159 is among the smallest gold denominations struck for this issuer — a half escudo at under two grams of high-fineness gold, likely produced in limited quantities at Cuzco.
