| Reverse description | The reverse displays a full-color photographic panoramic view of a bridge over the Paraguay River at sunset, with warm golden and orange tones reflected across the water, depicting the city of Concepción. Above the central color image, the legend XIII SERIE IBEROAMERICANA arches along the upper rim, with the denomination 1 GUARANÍ prominently inscribed in the upper field. The name CONCEPCIÓN appears in the lower central field beneath the image, while CAPITALES IBEROAMERICANAS curves along the lower rim. The overall design combines color printing with a silver-plated proof finish on the surrounding border. |

| Additional information |
Paraguay's Concepción department takes its name from the colonial-era settlement founded in 1773, one of the last significant Spanish foundations in the Río de la Plata region before independence movements began dismantling the empire. The guaraní itself was introduced in 1944, replacing the peso at parity, though the currency's real history is one of sustained devaluation — by the early 2000s, a single U.S. dollar bought over 6,000 of them. A 1-guaraní coin in 2024 is essentially ceremonial by definition.
