I've got one of that philippine 1983 fifty centavos coin error.

the error is that of the philippine eagle scientific name spelled PITHECOBHAGA JIFFERYI. supposed to be spelled as PITHECOPHAGA JIFFERYI.

"B" replaced "P" for a while until corrected by one biologist.

Intersting error. Krause lists it as KM#242.2 . VF $3.00, XF $5.00, UNC $9.00. It's not a rare error, but still worth more than the normal issue.

For me no,

it is not that rare for their are thousands or millions being produce in its time that one goverment official critizized one of the staff in the BSP when it replied it is for collectors for the mintage is high.

didnt seen any proof error though same in 10 cents 1983.
