500 Pesos Bicentenario

The coin appears to be a brass-colored round coin. On the visible side, there is a depiction of a person's head facing left, and text (Bicentenario) is visible along the right edge of the coin.

This coin was issued as part of Chile's Bicentenario (Bicentennial) commemoration. The Bicentenario celebrated 200 years of Chile's independence from Spanish rule, marking a significant milestone in the nation's history and sovereignty.

The estimated value for a circulated 500 Chilean Pesos coin in average condition is typically low, ranging from its face value (approximately 0.50-0.60 USD, depending on exchange rates) to a few dollars (for uncirculated or special conditions).

Handle the coin by its edges to avoid transferring oils from your skin. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes. For long-term storage, use inert materials such as coin flips made of Mylar or non-PVC plastic, or purpose-built coin holders or albums. Avoid cleaning the coin, as this can devalue it.
