philippine 1947s commemorative coins

those coins contained 75% silver. and to collect a set is more valuable than single piece.

 

"I shall return"
I guess he is still returning, in loving memory of the Philippino people anyway.

Aidan.

 

Aidan if you check the post in front of mine it was posted today asking for info on this coin! therfore I assume that they have one.

 

Steve,the mintage figure in Krause will provide a clue as to their scarcity.Seek & ye shalt find.

Aidan.

 

Again Aiden you fail to read I asked for a pic of what the poster has they asked for prices not me Mintage was not mentioned

 

Thats weird that someone who constantly revives 3-year-old threads for no reason at all would point out that this is an 'old posting'.
De Orc - this ebay listing has a nice shot of the 1 peso coin: http://www.ebay.ph/viItem?ItemId=120122125788
elaine 1970 - the 1/2 peso in BU is $7.00 according to my 2004 Krause

 

Thank You dopeuser that is quite a nice looking coin, not sure if I will buy one though LOL

NOT a fan of Macarthur.
I am a fan of Truman.
He wasn't a fan of Macarthur either.
