Owner Comments:
Minted in the old capital before the city was destroyed by earthquakes and the capital, and mint, was moved to Nueva Guatemala. From the November 2012 Cayón Subastas, Madrid, Spain, Lot# 47, Cy11954. Acuñación algo floja en el centro del flan, como es usual en la serie. EBC/EBC-. Graded below expectation, probably due to the strike on obverse, which lacks clarity in some of the design. Paid well over FMV but I've seen other Guatamala pilliars also auction well above FMV in 2012.
