Proclamation coins like this one were struck specifically to be thrown into crowds during the public acclamation ceremony marking a new monarch's recognition in the colonies — not to circulate, but to be scrambled for in the plaza. Ferdinand VI's proclamation in Guatemala City followed his accession in 1746, with local authorities organizing the ceremony and commissioning these pieces at their own considerable expense as a demonstration of loyalty to the Crown.
Medina's cataloguing of this type remains the foundational reference for Spanish colonial proclamation coinage, and Betts 346 confirms its place in the broader American series.
