The Gold Guatemala 10 Quetzal coin is a true numismatic rarity, minted in 1935 with an exceptionally low mintage of just 16,000 coins. Struck at the renowned Philadelphia Mint in the United States, this large-format gold coin contains 16.72 grams of .900 fine gold, offering both impressive intrinsic value and historic significance. The reverse features the graceful Resplendent Quetzal, Guatemala’s national bird, perched above a scroll bearing the date 15 de Septiembre de 1821—a proud tribute to the country’s independence.
The obverse showcases the national coat of arms with crossed rifles, swords, and laurel branches—symbols of defense, justice, and peace. As the highest denomination gold coin ever issued by Guatemala for circulation, the 10 Quetzal stands as a powerful symbol of the nation’s aspirations during a formative period.
