Peso Circulation Dates

I got an email from Oscar alerting me to the fact that my Pesos section was missing the dates for when thebills and coins were placed into circulation.

So I fired off an email to Chile’s Central Bank and heard back from them with the following:

Bills:

• $ 20,000 December 1998
• $ 10,000 June 1989
• $ 5,000 Julio 1981
• $ 2,000 December 1997
• $ 2,000 polymeric September 2004
• $ 1,000 June 1978
• $ 500 May 1977

Coins:

• $ 500 December 2000
• $ 100 December 2001
• $ 100 bimetallic November 1984
• $ 50 September 1981
• $ 10 September 1990
• $ 5 May 1992
• $ 1 March 1992

I’ve added this information to the Pesos’ individual pages.
