The specimen shown is from a type struck for Guatemala 1949-58. Guatemala still issues ten centavo pieces with the "Monolito de Quirigua" (the monolith of Quirigua, a Mayan stele) but the alloy was changed to copper-nickel in 1965, same as the United States.

Recorded mintage: 550,000.

Specification: 3.33 g, 0.720 fine silver, reeded edge.

Catalog reference: KM 256.1.
