[QUOTE="lordmarcovan, post: 2789313, member: 10461"]Yes, it is no coincidence that Panama's coinage has ties to the USA. High silver content? No, not in these 1966 and later pieces. They are copper-nickel-clad copper. But the earlier 1/10, 1/4, 1/2, and 1-Balboas were struck in 90% silver like pre-1965 US dimes through dollars were. Unsurprisingly, Panama also has 1-centesimo and 5-centesimos coins to match the US cents and nickels.[/QUOTE]
