Owner's Description

Copper-Nickel, 77.16 Grains, 20.5 mm.

The 1903 through 1928 Five Centavos have the same obverse and reverse design as the Half Centavo and One Centavo coins. Business strikes were made at the Philadelphia Mint in 1903 and 1904, the San Francisco Mint from 1916 through 1919, and the Manila Mint from 1920 through 1928. A limited number of proof Five Centavos coins were made at the Philadelphia Mint from 1903 through 1908.

The 1905 Five Centavos is a PROOF ONLY ISSUE with a mintage of only 471. Of the 471 pieces made, this has to be one of the very best. It is beautiful! This specimen is pedigreed from the Dr, Greg Pineda Philippine Collection.
