REGULAR AWARD MEDALS
The award medals for the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition were designed by Adolph Alexander Weinman (designer of the Mercury Dime and Liberty Walking Half Dollar) and struck in Bronze by the United States Mint at Philadelphia. The regular Award Medals were produced in four different award levels; "Bronze Medal", "Silver Medal", "Gold Medal" and "Grand Prize." Each award level was struck in a different shape; round for the "Bronze Medal", square for the "Silver Medal", triangular for the "Gold Medal", and a shield shape for the "Grand Prize" medal. In addition to the award medals the mint also struck a bronze "Commemorative Medal" in a triangular shape. All of these medals share a common central obverse and reverse design. It was not uncommon for recipients of the "Silver Medal" to privately have their medals silver plated. Likewise recipients of the "Gold Medal" and "Grand Prize" medal frequently had their medals privately gold plated.
Mintage figures for the regular Award Medals are as follows: Bronze Medal (10,000), Silver Medal (11,500), Gold Medal (9,000), Grand Prize (3,300), and Commemorative Medal (6,000).
OBVERSE DESIGN
The obverse of the medal depicts two female figures above the date MCMIV (1904). The tall taller figure is Columbia, with her arms spread wide holding the United States flag. The youthful maiden at her side represents the Louisiana Purchase Territory. Emblematic of her reception into the union, the maiden is divesting herself of the cloak of France, the material decorated with bees, the emblem of Napoleon. In the background is the rising sun, marking the dawn of a new era of progress to the nation. Encircling the two figures are the words "Universal Exposition - Saint Louis - United States of America."
REVERSE DESIGN
An American Eagle, wings outstretched sits upon a tablet. The tablet is inscribed with the award level and "LOUISIANA PURCHASE EXPOSITION". Below the tablet are two dolphins symbolizing the nations' eastern and western boundaries, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.
PHILIPPINE EXHIBIT
The 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition, held in St. Louis, provided an opportunity for the U.S. government to show off their new colony. The Philippine Exhibit was mammoth with a small Laguna Bay, Walled City, Visayan, and Moro Villages.
PHILIPPINE EXHIBIT AWARD MEDALS
Philippine Exhibit award medals are known in four levels; "Bronze Medal", "Silver Medal", "Gold Medal," and "Grand Prize". The only difference between the regular issue award medals and Philippine Exhibit award medals is the inscription changes on the cartouche or panel on the reverse of each medal. The tablet on the reverse of the Philippine Exhibit award medals are inscribed with the award level, " PHILIPPINE EXHIBIT" and "LOUISIANA PURCHASE EXPOSITION". All of the Philippine Exhibit medals are rare and have much lower mintages than their counter-part regular award medal. Mintages for the Philippine Exhibit award medals are as follows: "Bronze Medal" (975), "Silver Medal" (725), "Gold Medal" (600), and "Grand Prize" (100).

The 1944 One Centavo uses the same obverse and reverse designs as the pre-war One Centavo but has a different wartime composition.
The pre-war One Centavo was struck in a bronze alloy of 95% copper, and 5% zinc and tin. Both copper and tin were important strategic materials during wartime. To conserve tin, the wartime composition of the One Centavo was changed to a brass alloy of 95% copper and 5% zinc. This is the same alloy the mint used to produce U.S. wartime pennies dated 1944-1946. The mint produced this alloy by combining ingots of pure copper with salvaged 70% copper shell casings.
During the World War II Japanese occupation of the Philippines the Japanese confiscated coins held by banks and in circulation, melted them down and shipped them back to Japan to be used in their war effort. The few pre-war coins that escaped the melting pots were hoarded and hid away until after the war. With coins absent from circulation most daily commerce was conducted with low denomination paper currency (Emergency or Guerilla Currency) printed by Guerrilla military units, local municipalities, or Military and Civilian Currency Boards authorized by General MacArthur or the Commonwealth government-in-exile under President Quezon.
During the Japanese occupation there was a very active resistance movement in the Philippines, and allied intelligence was very much aware, of the economic situation in the islands, and the need to bring new coins and currency with them when they liberated the Philippines.
In preparation for General MacArthur’s return to the Philippines, the Treasury Department ordered the San Francisco Mint to strike millions of One Centavo coins. When American forces liberated the Philippines in 1944 - 1945 they brought with them Fifty-Eight Million 1944-S One Centavo coins.
This boldly struck FULL RED GEM is a die variety with the base of the last 4 missing at the left side (Allen number 3.06b).

During the World War II Japanese occupation of the Philippines the Japanese confiscated coins held by banks and in circulation, melted them down and shipped them back to Japan to be used in their war effort. The few pre-war coins that escaped the melting pots were hoarded and hid away until after the war. With coins almost totally absent from circulation most daily commerce was conducted with low denomination paper currency (Emergency or Guerilla Currency) printed by Guerrilla military units, local municipalities, or Military and Civilian Currency Boards authorized by General MacArthur or the Commonwealth government-in-exile under President Quezon.
During the Japanese occupation there was a very active resistance movement in the Philippines, and allied intelligence was very much aware, of the economic situation in the islands, and the need to bring new coins and currency with them when they liberated the Philippines.
In preparation for General MacArthur’s return to the Philippines, the Treasury Department ordered the Denver Mint to strike millions of Ten Centavos coins. When American forces liberated the Philippines in 1944 - 1945 they brought with them over 111 million Ten Centavos coins struck at the Dever Mint in of 1944 and 1945. Due to the need to replace nearly all the coinage necessary for the Philippine economy dies were used beyond their normal limits and quality was sacrificed in favor of quantity. As a result, the 1944-D and 1945-D U.S. Philippine Ten Centavos are typically weakly struck particularly on the reverse.

In 1936 the Manila Mint produced a set of three coins to commemorate the founding of the Commonwealth Of The Philippines on November 15,1935. The set consisted of a Fifty Centavos, and two One Peso Coins. The coins were designed by Ambrosio Morales, a Professor of Fine Arts at the University of the Philippines. The two commemorative Pesos were struck in .800 fineness silver. The Fifty Centavos was struck in .750 fineness silver. The three coin set had a face value of 2.5 Pesos, equal to $1.25 in U.S. Dollars, and sold for $3.13.
The obverse design of the Murphy-Quezon Peso features portraits of the first Philippine President Manuel L. Quezon and U.S. Governor General Frank Murphy. The reverse design depicts the official seal of "The Commonwealth of the Philippines".
The Mintage of the 1936M Murphy-Quezon Peso was 10,000 coins, however, the actual number of existing coins is far less as many of these coins were crated and thrown into Manila Bay, near Corregidor, in 1942 to avoid seizure by the invading forces of Japan.
