About Chilean Peso ($)
The Chilean Peso (CLP, ISO 4217 code 152, symbol $ or CLP) is the official currency of the Republic of Chile, issued by the Banco Central de Chile (BCCh, est. 1925). Subdivided into 100 centavos (no longer in physical circulation). Banknotes: $1,000 (Ignacio Carrera Pinto), $2,000 (Manuel Rodríguez), $5,000 (Gabriela Mistral — Chile's Nobel Prize-winning poet, the first woman on a Chilean banknote), $10,000 (Arturo Prat), $20,000 (Andrés Bello); coins: $1, $5, $10, $50, $100, $500.

The BCCh targets 3% CPI inflation ± 1% per the Monetary Policy Framework Agreement (autonomous central bank constitutional status since 1989).
