Guatemala (Republic), 1R-sized silver medal, 1847, NGC MS 64+, finest known in NGC census. Fonrobert-7236. 3.28 grams. Choice strike and luster with lovely eye-appeal, no marks or wear. Guatemala did not strike any 1R under the Central American Republic after 1828 (except for the State of Guatemala 1R of 1829--see previous lot), so these Republic of Guatemala medals of same weight and proper fineness were an accepted substitute. NGC #4703646-008.
