PHILIPPINES. Mint Error -- Muled With 5 Centavos Reverse -- 20 Centavos, 1928-M. Manilla Mint. PCGS Genuine--Cleaned, VF Details.
KM-174; Allen-11.18. During a momentary die shortage, clever Manilla Mint employees realized they could alter a 1927 obverse die and pair it with a similarly sized 5 Centavos reverse to continue production. A RARE find in any state of preservation, the present coin has ample detail and consistent, bright gray surfaces.
Estimate: $100 - $200
