1 Guaraní Gold Currency Reform

Paraguay's guaraní was introduced in 1944 to replace the peso, but the currency spent decades losing ground to chronic inflation — by the early 2000s, a single US dollar fetched over 6,000 guaraníes. This bullion piece, struck in 2013, commemorates the currency reform rather than any specific stabilization event; the denomination of 1 guaraní is essentially symbolic, since no circulating coin of that value had been relevant to daily commerce for generations.

KM#211 is part of a broader collector-oriented program from the Banco Central, not a circulating issue. The 6.80g weight aligns it with a half-ounce-adjacent format common in Latin American commemorative gold of this period.
