1960 Philippines One Centavo!


A little over 10 years after the U.S. left and the Philippines were still using the old U.S. Administration designs. My favorite aspect of this coin is the multi-coloredness <--(not a word). My least favorite is the shotty die work. The "REPUBLIC OF THE PHILIPPINES" on the banner looks pretty amateur as do the sun's rays. There's also a possible die crack between the 6 and the 0 but that may just be from that stain. It's worth about $0.05 unless there's a die crack in which case it is worth more.
