This type was struck for the [[Philippines]] 1903-28. The early dates (1903-08) are from the Philadelphia mint, the middle dates (1916-19) are from the San Francisco mint and the later dates (1920-1921 without a mint mark and 1925-28 with mintmark "M") are from the Manila mint. The Manila mint struck reduced size five centavos 1930-35 (KM 175). In 1937, with the inauguration of the Commonwealth, the reverse was redesigned. This third type (KM 180) was struck at Manila 1937-41 and at San Francisco in 1944-45. Many of the dates are rare, especially in nice condition, and the 1917-S is a better date. All were demonetized by the Philippine government in the late 1960's when the currency was reformed. The specimen shown has streaky toning, frequently encountered on copper-nickel coins when the alloy was not properly mixed before rolling into sheets.<br />
