1903 - 1912 These are actually classified as American coinage, most people think that they are foreign.

There are some very rare dates - (1906-S Peso) - (1915-S Ten Centavo)
Have you ever researched the ones you have?

Well at least you took the time to check, I know people that had coins in their closet for years - and have no idea what they have.

I have a few coins of the Philippines under the U.S., but none are pesos; they are all fractional denominations. I do have an 1897 peso issued under Spanish authority. I accumulate coins from just about anywhere, and I find the U.S. issues of the Philippines about as interesting as many other things I end up with, but I don't actively collect them.

No Mintmark 1903 - 1908 Philadelphia

No Mintmark 1920 - 1922 Manilla

No Mintmark 1944 Philadelphia

Have you checked this close to make sure the mintmark hasnt been ground off?

Contact Lyman Allen at the address below and bring it to his attention. This could be a new found variety. If so, he will give you credit for the discovery in his next publication.
