Octagonal Chilean 1992 $10 coin with the bust of Bernardo O’Higgins
A pattern/prototype, not the common round $10.

En 1992 la Casa de Moneda de Chile probó un prototipo octogonal de $10 pesos, retirado por parecerse demasiado a las monedas de $1 y $5.

Por su rareza, los ejemplares sobrevivientes hoy se cotizan por encima de los $500.000 pesos chilenos entre coleccionistas.
