[citation needed] The guaraní is currently one of the least valued currency units in the Americas, US$1 being equivalent as of June, 2024, to ₲7,520.

[citation needed] First series:[3] The second issue, introduced in 1953, consisted of 10¢, 15¢, 25¢ and 50¢ coins.

All were again minted in aluminium-bronze but were scallop shaped and featured the lion and Liberty cap on the obverse.

[citation needed] In 1975, coins were introduced in denominations of ₲1, ₲5, ₲10 and ₲50, all of which were round and made of stainless steel.

The 1982 revision added denominations in the Guaraní language to the reverses.

Starting from 2004, the existing denominations, except ₲50,000, underwent small but easily noticeable changes, such as a more sophisticated and borderless underprint and enhanced security features.

Such security features include a see through window in the shape of a locomotive, a watermark of the portrait.
