Philadelphia mint, KM-PS4 (as a set). Mintage of only 500 sets, of which a large number of these sets were also dumped in Manila bay during World War II. An appealing set, with similar tone on the silver pieces. The copper pieces are evenly toned in chocolate-brown with underlying cherry-red and the 5 Centavos displays a light-russet patina. The silver pieces are all attractive, with the 10 Centavos deeply toned and the Peso flashy with mottled hues across the surfaces.
Estimate: 4000-5000 USD
