| Aanvullende informatie |
Colombia issued this coin to commemorate Simón Bolívar, but the timing matters: 1980 placed it squarely within a period when the Colombian government was aggressively using commemorative gold issues as both prestige objects and hard-currency instruments, often sold directly to foreign buyers and collector markets rather than circulated domestically. The 34.58g gold weight was not arbitrary — it was calibrated to align with existing international bullion coin conventions, making the piece tradeable on commodity terms.
KM#269 is sometimes confused with earlier Bolívar commemoratives in the series; the 1980 date distinguishes it from the 1969 issues struck for the sesquicentennial of his death.
