1000 Intis Inti

Front: Ruins of Chan Chan, the largest pre-Columbian adobe city in the Americas, built by the Chimú civilization near present-day Trujillo, Peru, around 850 CE and serving as their capital until conquest by the Inca Empire around 1470. The site features monumental mud-brick architecture with intricate geometric friezes and was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986. The front also displays a Chimú ceremonial knife (tumi) with ornate decorative elements at left, representing the sophisticated metalwork of this coastal culture.

Back: Nicolás de Piérola (1839-1913), Peruvian politician who served twice as President of Peru (1879-1881 during the War of the Pacific and 1895-1899), known for his fiscal reforms and modernization efforts. De Piérola played a crucial role in Peru's political and economic development during the late 19th century, implementing the gold standard and establishing the foundations of modern Peruvian banking. The Peruvian national coat of arms appears at center, featuring the vicuña, cinchona tree, and cornucopia symbolizing the country's natural wealth.
