| 背面描述 | A full-length standing figure of Liberty occupies the central field, rendered in classical neoclassical style. She is helmeted and draped in a long flowing gown, holding a tall staff topped with a Phrygian cap in her raised right hand, while her left hand rests upon a oval shield or tablet inscribed with letters. The surrounding legend reads FIRME Y FELIZ POR LA UNION, arcing fully around the periphery in bold capital letters. The design is enclosed within a plain field with a reeded border. |

Peru's early republican gold coinage was struck at the Lima mint — operating continuously since 1565 — but the transition from colonial to republican authority was administratively turbulent. The assayer initial system inherited from the Spanish Crown continued, meaning individual assayers remained personally accountable for fineness, a practice that introduced measurable variation in alloy quality across the series. Pieces from the early 1830s are particularly suspect on this count.
The type spans three decades and multiple political upheavals, including the short-lived Peru-Bolivian Confederation of 1836–1839. Coins struck during the Confederation years circulated across both nations under a unified monetary arrangement that collapsed with the Battle of Yungay.
