Guatemala's 1 Quetzal underwent a quiet but significant materials change during this production run — the non-magnetic nickel brass composition replaced an earlier magnetic steel-core version that had caused problems with vending equipment and automated fare systems across Central America. The shift was driven less by monetary policy than by the practical demands of a modernizing commercial infrastructure.
