Comments

Z powodu inflacji wynikającej z niekontrolowanych wydatków rządowych i odpływu srebrnych i złotych monet z kraju, rząd Gwatemali wprowadził do obiegu monety miedzioniklowe.

Z powodu I wojny światowej monety te zostały wyeksportowane do Europy i przetopione ze względu na zawartość niklu.

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

Due to inflation resulting from unchecked government spending and the exodus of silver and gold coinage from the country, the Guatemalan Government introduced cupronickel coinage into circulation.

Due to World War 1, these coins were exported to Europe and melted for their nickel content.
