Lyman Allen #5.05 (KM #175) - Mintage: 2,754,000

1935 was the final year for the reduced size and weight 5 Centavos with the eagle and shield reverse.

The obverse of this particular coin is better struck than most for this year, but details on the extremities are weak. The reverse however is very sharply and fully struck including the stars in the shield and the breast feathers .
