A very Rare “Velma’s Chilo” Token / Pendant – Rulau CHE-3 – Obscure Chilean Exonumia An unusual small uniface token or pendant reading “VELMA’S CHILO”, with classical-style bust and plain reverse. The piece is deliberately made in this form, with well-finished edges and an integral suspension hole, rather than being a clipped or damaged coin. This type is identified by long-established world token dealer escoumins as Chile – Rulau CHE-3 “Velma’s Chilo” token, with a current listed example at US $65 and a previous example reportedly sold by the same dealer in 1993 for around US $49. The exact meaning of “Velma’s Chilo” remains uncertain, adding to its appeal as an obscure research piece for collectors of world tokens, Chilean exonumia and unusual historical curios. Condition: As photographed, with age wear and patina. Very few people will have this item and very few are for sale. This is going to be a one off opportunity for collectors.
