| Obverse description | A finely engraved Andean condor, facing left, is depicted perched atop a rocky outcrop at center, its wings partially spread in a commanding heraldic posture. The bird's talons grip the rock firmly, and detailed feather engraving is visible across the wings, breast, and neck. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CHILE arcs around the periphery, flanked by a beaded border running along the coin's rim. |

KM#Pn27 designates this as a pattern — not a circulation issue. Chile's Casa de Moneda struck a series of silver pattern pieces in 1914 as the government weighed a redesign of the fractional coinage, none of which entered regular production. Most known examples were retained in official collections or dispersed to contemporary dealers shortly after striking, which explains why auction appearances remain infrequent and provenance chains tend to be short.
