| Reversbeschreibung | Central device depicting a mounted horseman riding right atop two stylized volcanic peaks, representing the twin volcanoes Agua and Fuego that flank Guatemala City, symbolizing the territory's proclamation of the new sovereign. The rider and volcanoes are rendered in bold, somewhat naive relief typical of colonial proclamation medals. The encircling Latin legend GUAT · IN · EIUS · PROCLAMATIONE · 1760 · frames the design within a beaded border, commemorating Guatemala's official proclamation of Carlos III. The date 1760 appears in the lower portion of the legend. A suspension hole at the top of the flan confirms this example was mounted and worn, a common fate for popular proclamation pieces. |

Proclamation pieces like this were struck not for commerce but for ceremony — scattered among crowds or presented to dignitaries during the formal acclamation of a new monarch in colonial capitals. Carlos III had already been king of Naples and Sicily for over two decades before inheriting the Spanish crown in 1759, arriving as an unusually experienced ruler by Bourbon standards. Guatemala City's proclamation issue the following year was among the more remote colonial observances of his accession, produced far from the metropolitan mints of Mexico City or Lima.
Medina's cataloguing of these Hispanic proclamation pieces remains the foundational reference, though attribution between genuine struck examples and later restrike issues requires careful attention to die alignment.
