1913 Colombia 5 Pesos Gold – Stonecutter – 22K, Low Mintage
This listing features a 1913 Colombian 5 Pesos gold coin, widely recognized for its distinctive “Stonecutter” obverse design depicting a seated male figure chiseling into a rock. The inscription REPUBLICA DE COLOMBIA encircles the design, with the date “1913” below. The reverse displays Colombia’s national coat of arms beneath a perched condor, flanked by the denomination CINCO PESOS and gold content specifications G 7.988 and LEY 0.916 2/3.
Struck under Colombia’s adherence to the international gold standard, this issue aligns in weight and purity with contemporary sovereign-type coins, offering both historical interest and bullion value. Approximately 17,000 pieces were minted in this year, making it a relatively scarce issue within the series.
