Evidence coverage: 1821–2001. This is the span of collected observations, not the currency’s lifetime.
This record includes associated currencies and earlier interpretations. The article selects the evidence relevant to its own history.
Account-unit continuity supported by the revision 23 source review; a naming, issuer or scale change does not supply a distinct ancestor.
No distinct successor currency is established in the loaded view.
These stages belong to this profile, not separate branches.
Evidence within this identity, not separate currencies.
The Salvadoran peso was renamed colón in 1892 for official documents; monetary reform and naming do not create a separate currency identity.
Sources and qualifications →The nascent Salvadoran republic inherited the Spanish real system, including its multiples and subdivisions, through independence and the Central American federation.

Corrected interpretation: Revision 27 supplies a new evidence basis for R-V23-022. Original university museum history explicitly states inherited monetary system. Existing Salvadoran peso/colón profile can include real denominations; avoid an extra node for decimalisation. Replacement evidence: C1598.
