| Aanvullende informatie |
Colombia's gold 5 Pesos of this period was struck at the Medellín mint, which had been refitted in the early 1920s largely on the back of revenues from the banana export boom and, critically, the $25 million indemnity payment received from the United States in 1922 — compensation, finally, for the separation of Panama in 1903. That influx of capital briefly stabilized Colombian finances enough to sustain a credible gold coinage through the mid-decade.
Production effectively ceased by 1930 as the Great Depression collapsed commodity prices and gold convertibility became untenable across Latin America.
