| Reverse description | Entirely blank field constituting the reverse of this gold planchet trial, struck without any die impression. The smooth, unadorned surface displays flow lines and minor abrasions typical of a test planchet. The raised milled collar edge is fully struck up and uniform. The absence of any design confirms the purely technical nature of this piece as a weight and alloy verification specimen. |

| Additional information |
Planchet trials of this type were struck at the Santiago mint to verify alloy consistency and press calibration before committing to a full production run — not intended for circulation and almost never released through official channels. The Casa de Moneda de Chile has used gold planchet trials internally since at least the nineteenth century, making precise attribution of undated or unmarked pieces genuinely difficult.
