Colombia - 50 pesos 2007 & 2008

New circulating type. It is magnetic, as it has a steel core. So, it is a new KM, different from KM283.1 and KM283.2, although the design is exactly the same.

Notes from Wolfgang Schuster: the vast majority of the ordinary 50 pesos issues from 2007 and 2008 are still in the old metal, non magnetic. In addition to those there are very very few and really difficult to find of these magnetic types.
