Description

1919 Colombia 5 Pesos Gold – Stonecutter – 22K Final-Year Issue


This listing presents a 1919 5 Pesos gold coin from the Republic of Colombia, the final year of the well-known “Stonecutter” design series. The obverse shows a seated male figure at work, with the inscription REPUBLICA DE COLOMBIA and date below. The reverse features the national coat of arms beneath a condor in flight, with legends denoting denomination and gold specifications: CINCO PESOS, G. 7.988, and LEY 0.916 2/3.

Struck in 22-karat gold, this issue mirrors sovereign-standard dimensions and offers both historical character and bullion integrity. Over 2.1 million coins were produced in 1919, making this the most accessible date of the type.

  • Denomination: 5 Pesos

In extremely fine (XF) condition, showing moderate wear on the high points with loss of some finer detail. Surfaces exhibit scattered contact marks typical of circulation, while inscriptions remain fully legible. Please refer to the photos for a detailed condition assessment.

Struck in 22-karat gold and containing 0.2355 troy ounces of pure gold, the 1919 Colombia 5 Pesos balances bullion value with historic design appeal. While its higher mintage makes it more available than earlier dates, it remains sought after as the final year of the "Stonecutter" series. Circulated examples typically track near melt, while better-preserved specimens may carry modest premiums. It offers a practical, gold-backed investment with the added benefit of numismatic interest.
