PHILIPPINES. 50 Centavos, 1905. Philadelphia Mint. NGC PROOF Details--Environmental Damage.
KM-167; Allen-13.04. Mintage: 471. A crescent of rich magenta patina gives way to a hint of verdigris at the rims, resulting in the NGC details designation. The surfaces are otherwise original and Uncirculated, with the fields producing a brilliant flash when rotated appropriately under a light source. No signs of wear or handling are evident. Overall a piece that, given its problem, features decent eye appeal when compared to other options.
From the Alfonso Sito Garcia collection. EX: Jesus Cacho collection.
Estimate: $200 - $400
