Hello,

 

For Chile we have the currency:

Old peso (1835-1980)

8 Reales = 1 Peso = 2 Escudos (before 1851) • 100 Centavos = 10 Décimos = 1 Peso (after 1851)

 

But we have several banknotes in Condor.

For what I can see 10 Pesos = 1 Condor so I would suggest:

Old peso (1835-1980)

8 Reales = 1 Peso = 2 Escudos (before 1851) • 100 Centavos = 10 Décimos = 1 Peso (after 1851) • 10 Pesos = 1 Condor

Always look on the bright side of life!

I agree with this request.

I think old peso is an odd name, nobody makes a currency an calls it old. This is clearly an anachronistic name.

In fact, we can take the opportunity to adjust the date of the first Peso period (Old Peso).

 

As the Escudo entered circulation in Chile in January 1st.,1960, the correct circulation date of the Old Peso is from 1835 to 1959.

 

So, I believe that the correct adjustment (taking advantage of what was already posted by Indomini16) would be:

 

Old peso (1835-1959)

8 Reales = 1 Peso = 2 Escudos (before 1851) • 100 Centavos = 10 Décimos = 1 Peso (after 1851) • 10 Pesos = 1 Condor

 

Therefore, I request this change from the administrators. =)

 

Thanks in advance!
