CHAUCHERA Wallet . In Chile formerly the weight of silver and the weight of copper alloy was divided into coins of 20 cents, called chauchas and that served to pay for the collective locomotion, which was worth precisely a chaucha. That is why it was very common among women to have chauchas in the chauchera. The men kept them in the bags inside the pockets or in a small pocket on the edge of the belt or on the inner lining of the jacket.
