The Story
Thanks for stopping by Treasure Hunter Co!
This listing is for one 1917 Philippines 10 Centavos, as pictured. About the Philippines Centavos Coins: The obverse of the 10, 20, 50 centavo, and peso coins are similar, but they show the figure of Liberty, a standing female figure (considered by many to be the daughter of the designer 'Blanca') in the act of striking the anvil with a hammer. This was done to show the work being done by Americans in building a better Philippines. Liberty appears on the silver coins, instead of the base metal coins.
