Chris, your eyes are better than mine - could you pick up the mint mark on the Phillipine 20 centavos?
Roy,those coins from the Philippines under American administration usually have either a 'D' or an 'S' mintmark. Some coins are rare if they were struck at Denver & common if they were struck at San Francisco,or vice-versa. It depends on the coin. Aidan.
That particular coin has two versions - one with a D mintmark, which is the more common, and one with a D/S, which is less common and more valuable. That's why I gave the price info I did. Believe it or not, although I do not generally collect US coinage, I do know how to read Krause.
Thanks so much for all your posts. You guys really know your coins. Christians right it's a "D" with out the "S".
