| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bimetallic trial strike featuring the small version of the Chilean coat of arms centrally placed within the brass inner disc. The arms display a quartered shield bearing a star, supported by a huemul deer to the left and a condor to the right, surmounted by three ostrich feathers above a crest. A decorative scroll with the national motto appears at the base of the supporters. The legend REPUBLICA DE CHILE encircles the design within the outer nickel ring, with a five-pointed star positioned at the bottom of the ring. |

Trial strikes from the Casa de Moneda de Chile occupy an awkward cataloging space — technically official products of the mint, but never authorized for circulation. This "Small Shield" variant documents an early design iteration in the development of the 500 peso bimetallic series, likely rejected before the production dies were finalized. The shield reduction itself suggests the engravers were testing proportional fits within the brass centre field, a recurring problem with bimetallic blanks where the color boundary imposes compositional constraints that flat single-metal flans do not.
