Business Strike Issues
Commonwealth Issues
Proof Strike Issues

Business Strike Issues: 1903-1945

This is interesting series with some very peculiar issues. In 1918, dies used for the twenty centavo coins were used to strike five centavo coins erroneously resulting in one of the greatest rarities in the entire U.S.-Philippines series – the 1918-S 5 centavo mule. Scarce in uncirculated condition, collectors could search for years before locating a high grade specimen. One thing is certain, however, once completed this set will be an achievement worthy of praise.

Commonwealth Issues: 1937-1945

Proof Strike Issues: 1903-1908

The largest denomination featuring a reverse not showing Lady Liberty and the only one not predominantly made of silver or copper, this series will still provide fun, challenge, and rewarding results. Key issues are 1905, 1906 and 1908, whose mintages are below 1,000 each.
