Comments

Balboa był Hiszpanem, pierwszym Europejczykiem, który przekroczył Przesmyk, dotarł lądem do Pacyfiku i odkrył Archipelag Perlas (1513). 9 gwiazd reprezentuje 9 ówczesnych prowincji kraju (obecnie jest ich 10).

Od czasu odłączenia się od Kolumbii w 1903 r. Panama używa dolara amerykańskiego. Monety te mają takie same specyfikacje jak półdolarówka Stanów Zjednoczonych i były w obiegu razem z nią.Automatically translated
