1 Peseta Guayama

Guayama is one of seventeen Puerto Rican municipalities honored in a coin series launched by the island's government in the late 2000s, modeled loosely on the U.S. State Quarters program. The series was struck by a private mint rather than the U.S. Mint, reflecting Puerto Rico's ambition to issue collector coinage under its own cultural identity despite having no independent monetary authority — the peseta denomination itself carrying deliberate historical resonance with the Spanish colonial currency displaced after 1898.
