Chilean Coinage: "Hammer And Sickle"

These symbols were in Chilean coins between 1895 to 1942. These are symbols that represent the work in the countryside and in industry from yesteryears times, as heraldic symbols with no political significance.
Now in Chile these were adopted by the Communist Party in the early '20s, following the accession to the International PC.

Therefore, I think its inclusion in Chilean coins was as a heraldic symbol at a time that had no political connotation.

Much like the swastika was widely used as a "good luck" symbol prior to the symbol being annexed by the Nazis, the hammer and sickle, either combined or separate, were often used from the mid-1800s to heraldically symbolize farmers and factory/mine workers, respectively. These meanings are, of course, also what the Soviet Communists wished to symbolize as well.

There are occasional debates in Austria over the continued use of the hammer and sickle on their coat of arms; once people are reminded that their use on the Austrian arms predates the formation of the Soviet Union by several years, they're OK with it.

I noticed that as well. Looks like someone needs to make some edits, but would also need to cite sources.
