Between 1978 and 1981 Argentina issued a 50 peso coin to commemorate the 200th Anniversary of the birth of General José de San Martín in 1778. Although he is often called the Liberator of Argentina, San Martín was also instrumental in leading the struggle for independence, of Chile and Peru from the Spanish Empire. The coins are minted in brass-clad steel and come in uncirculated condition.
