| Additional information |
Bernardino Caballero founded the Colorado Party in 1887, the political machine that would dominate Paraguay for over a century — including the Stroessner dictatorship under whose government this coin was issued. The 1973 gold series from the Banco Central del Paraguay was part of a broader commemorative program typical of Latin American states in this period, producing high-denomination gold pieces with limited domestic circulation and a clear eye toward the international collector market.
