Peru – 1967 – 50 Soles – Inca Indian Head – Gold – NGC MS65 – Cert 3233101-003

The Peruvian 50 Soles gold coin from 1967, featuring the distinctive Inca Indian Head, is among the most sought-after South American gold issues of the post-war period. The design combines national identity, classic gold minting, and a very collector-friendly format containing just under one ounce of pure gold.

The 1967 edition was minted with a mintage of 10,000 pieces. This makes the coin significantly more collector-oriented than a purely mass-produced item, yet at the same time internationally well-known enough to be regularly sought after within global gold collections.

The offered coin has been certified MS65 by NGC. This high mint-state grade makes the coin particularly attractive, as the large open areas and strong relief are showcased to great effect on uncirculated pieces. The Inca head on the obverse also gives this issue a distinctive visual appeal.
