Guatemala 1866 cuartilla rev DSLR.jpg

The specimen shown is of a common type struck 1859-69. It is almost completely anepigraphic, lacking a mintmark or country of origin. Guatemala was the last country in Latin America to abandon the real, in 1912, a reflection of the extreme conservatism of the peasant society.

Recorded mintage: unknown but common.

Specification: .76 g, 0.903 fine silver, .022 troy oz ASW.

Catalog reference: KM 130.
