PHILIPPINES. Mint Error -- Muled with 5 Centavos Reverse -- 20 Centavos, 1928-M. Manila Mint. NGC MS-64.
KM-174; Allen-11.18. Featuring an alluring light golden tone, this resplendent variety is the result of a rush order on the 20 Centavos denomination which needed to be filled. No appropriate reverse dies were available at the time, so a 1927 obverse was altered and then paired with a 5 Centavos reverse, conveniently similar in size. RARE, especially in this impressive near gem designation.
From the Pasig River Collection.
Estimate: $2000.00- $3000.00
