The 2011 Scott Classic Specialized catalog values Guatemala 25a at $500.00 mint. No value for used. The catalog also states the stamp is engraved. Your stamp does not look engraved.

Hi to all

DId I read somewhere that a person had the rights to the printing of some South American countries in the 19th century, and reprinted many of the stamps, including errors?

These are two 20c gueniune errors. Counterfeits are rarely seen. There are a lot of paste-up forgeries the are easily identified under a magnifyer.

Guatemala was not a party to the Seebeck postage issues, as were Honduras, Nicaragua and El Salvador.
