PHILIPPINES. Peso, 1906-S. San Francisco Mint. PCGS Genuine--Gouged, AU Details.
KM-168; Allen-16.08. Though featuring a respectable mintage of 201,000 pieces, most of this KEY DATE issue was immediately stored and never released due to the rising price of silver. Fully argent surfaces show signs of a wipe, but an absence of wear across the high points makes the present example especially desirable when compared to others. Detailed and bright, there is much to enjoy on this more attainable specimen that thankfully escaped the melting pot.
Estimate: $4000 - $8000
