This type was issued by the Philippines for circulation 1983-89, to be superseded in 1991 by a smaller stainless steel coin (KM 243.2). Today, with US$1 = 48 PHP (approximately), no coins smaller than a peso circulate. This date is common. The beast on the reverse, Anoa mindoroensis, now reclassified as Bubalus mindoroensis, is better known as the tamaraw bull. Fewer than a thousand individuals exist.

Recorded mintage: 55,869,000.

Specification: 9.5 g, copper-nickel, 29 mm diameter.

Catalog reference: KM 243.1.
