Chile 1/2 and 1 Decimo 1851 to 1862 'Por la Razón o la Fuerza' is a Chilean motto 'By reason or by force' that appears on many of their coins. The condor, also, is a favorite topic.

These coins are difficult to find in any condition, especially in well preserved condition. So collectors who want to add them to their collections are willing to pay good prices for nice looking coins.
