| 正面描述 | The obverse bears a Guatemalan counterstamp applied to the obverse of a Peruvian host coin. The counterstamp consists of the coat of arms taken from the Guatemalan 1/2 Real of 1894. The underlying host coin displays the Peruvian national coat of arms — featuring a shield divided into three sections depicting a vicuña, a cinchona tree, and a cornucopia — with the denomination indicated in the exergue. The host coin legend encircles the arms and references the Lima Mint, fineness, and date of Peruvian independence. |

Guatemala's counterstamped coinage of the 1890s emerged from a pragmatic response to chronic silver shortages and the difficulty of maintaining an independent mint at full production capacity. Foreign coins — primarily Chilean and other Latin American pesos — were officially counterstamped and placed into domestic circulation rather than melted and recoined. The 1894 issues appeared as Guatemala was simultaneously navigating the coffee-export boom under Reina Barrios, which was generating hard currency demand faster than the monetary system could absorb it.
KM#225 counterstamps are known on several host coin types, making attribution of the underlying planchet as important to collectors as the stamp itself.
