| Aanvullende informatie |
Peru's 50 Soles Oro gold piece was struck continuously across two decades, but the series is not homogeneous. Output varied sharply by year, and certain dates within the 1950s were minted in quantities low enough that they command significant premiums over melt — a fact obscured by the long date range listed in most references. The coin was legal tender throughout, though in practice pieces circulated little; gold's purchasing power relative to the nominal face value made hoarding the rational choice almost immediately upon issue.
The 1969 and 1970 dates arrived just as Peru's Revolutionary Government under General Velasco Alvarado was nationalizing major industries. Gold coin production continued briefly into this period before the political climate effectively ended the series.
