GUATEMALA, Guatemala City, gold 16 pesos, Carrera, 1869 R, NGC MS 61. KM-188; Fr-39. Rich gold color, highly lustrous, with surface hairlines and minor marks but practically no wear, desirable two-year type with only 3,465 pieces struck for this date, very few known in Mint State. It is interesting to note that this series comprised a base-8 denomination system (4-8-16 pesos) concurrently with a base-10 system (5-10-20 pesos), the former not just in smaller weights but also in lower fineness (0.875 versus 0.900).
