| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Peruvian national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting the quartered shield with a vicuna in the upper left canton, a cinchona tree in the upper right, and a cornucopia in the base. The shield is flanked by laurel and palm branches tied at the base, with a rising sun above. The circular legend OBOLO POPULAR PATRIOTICO runs around the periphery, separated at the base by two small floral ornaments. A beaded border frames the entire design, and a small mintmark letter R is visible at the bottom of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued by the Sociedad de Beneficencia Pública de Lima, this is a token rather than a state coinage — a distinction that matters. The Beneficencia operated hospitals, cemeteries, and charitable institutions across Lima, and periodically issued gold pieces to raise funds and facilitate internal transactions. The phrase "In Hoc Signo Vinces" — Constantine's famous pre-battle vision inscription — was a deliberate invocation of Catholic institutional authority rather than any numismatic tradition.
Frost's and KM both catalog it under token issues precisely because the Peruvian government had no hand in its production.
