Sap Moderator Australia 16831 Posts	Posted 01/26/2009 02:20 am At the time these coins were issued, the Philippines were an American territory - just like Guam and Puerto Rico still are today. All these "Spanish" territories became American after the Spanish-American War of 1898. The Philippines was, however, the only "American colony" which issued it's own coinage. The mint in Manila was even declared a branch of the US Mint. As an American colony, you'll find US-Philippine coinage listed in the back of the RedBook. Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
