The Casa de Moneda de Coquimbo was a mint created in La Serena,[1] established on September 27, 1827,[2] due to the silver mining boom triggered by the discovery of silver at Arqueros (1825). From the point of view of the Chilean government of that period, to purchase silver and make coins in the province of Coquimbo was more economical than transport the silver to Santiago.
This mint is noted for being the only official mint located outside Santiago during the history of Chile.
Gregorio Cordovez del Caso was appointed as intendent of the mint on 24 June, 1828.[3]
