IN MEMORIAM Fernando Chao

Fernando was a biochemist, received 50 years ago, later he studied Political Science and was a professor at the Faculty of Agrarian Sciences in his hometown. From a young age he was interested in coins and medals, he joined the Numismatic and History Institute of San Nicolás at the hand of his teacher and dear friend Dr. José Eduardo de Cara, and in 1969 he published an article of his authorship in his bulletin "An unpublished Spanish essay." He could not fail to belong in his Rosary to the Numismatic Center of that city, which in its 1970 magazine published the note "Ventures and misadventures of a classical head" with Luís María Novelli. That was the beginning of more than 140 articles on his specialty, not counting some unpublished or notes that will be found among his papers, those that a decade later led him to join the Argentine Academy of Numismatics and Medalistics as a correspondent. Already in 1982, at the request of Eduardo de Cara and Eduardo de Oliveira Cézar, dear friends, he arrived at the Buenos Aires Institute of Numismatics and Antiquities as a correspondent and in 1995 as a numerary.

His work in numismatics led him to join the Federation of Argentine Numismatic and Medalist Entities, he was a jury for the First Prize for Numismatic and Medalistic Literature "Alberto Coco Derman" his great friend, instituted for the year 2008.

The National Academy of History appointed him a corresponding member in the Province of Santa Fe in 2011 and the Argentine Academy of Arts and Sciences of Communication in the same category in 2015. He was a member of the Editorial Board of Histopia.
