| Aanvullende informatie |
Guyana's post-independence coinage series was introduced following the country's transition to a republic in 1970, breaking fully from Commonwealth currency conventions. The jaguar denomination reflects a deliberate effort by the Burnham government to anchor national identity in indigenous fauna rather than colonial symbols — a pattern repeated across the series with each denomination assigned a distinct local animal.
The brass alloy specified here, with its tin content, mirrors the composition used across several Caribbean and South American issues of the 1970s as rising copper prices pushed mints toward cost-control formulations.
