Hello,

I recently bought a bag full of pennies from an estate sale. I found this coin in the bag, but it has very little details and super worn. On the obverse, you can barely make out an eagle in the center, 1933(?), and 'states of' on top. The reverse is completely flat and smooth. This coin is really thin and weights 3.78 grams.

Any of you know what this is? Any help is appreciated.

Thank you all!

Welcome to the forum


the coin is a Phillipines one centavo,, in that shape it has basically no value numismatically speaking ,,it does however represent a long and useful life historically .

Thank you for your help. I feel better knowing what it is. I found a few 1909 S Lincoln pennies, so I all ready made my money back and more. Definitely keeping this one, since I won't get anything for it.

Once again, thank you for your help.
