Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 1 Real - Charles III 1760-1771 from Guatemala made of Silver (.917) weighing 3.3834 g is that it was minted during the reign of King Charles III of Spain, who was also known as Charles III of Bourbon. He was the king of Spain and its colonies from 1759 until his death in 1788, and his reign saw significant changes in the Spanish Empire, including the expansion of Spanish influence in the Americas and the establishment of new trade routes. The coin itself is a testament to the rich history and cultural heritage of Guatemala and the broader Latin American region.
