Lot of 7x Chile 1950s-1970s Banknotes, All UNC, 7pcs
Chile is a narrow, coastal country that occupies the space between the Andes Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, bordered by Peru, Bolivia, and Argentina. Settlement began about 10,000 years ago, and the area was soon occupied by the Mapuche. The Mapuche, who remain Chile's largest Indigenous group today, fought valiantly to defend their land against invaders: first, against the Inca, whose imperial ambitions began creeping into northern Chile in the late 15th century; then, against the Spanish, whose conquest of the area began in 1540. Isolated by geography and Mapuche resistance, Spanish settlement in Chile was a bit of a rough, frontier affair that mostly served as a buffer between Spain's enemies and her other colonies. Movement for independence began in the early 19th century, and the struggle between Chilean revolutionaries and Spanish authority continued until 1818, when the Spanish were decisively defeated at the Battle of Maipú.
This lot of banknotes dates mostly to the 1950s through the 1970s. Portraits include that of naval officer Arturo Prat, Chilean independence leaders Bernardo O'Higgins and Josa Miguel Carrera, and former president Anibal Pinto.
