    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.

    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. ;)

    ... and that seems to be the one in the picture. I see a "D" there but no "S".
