Greysheet Catalog Details (GSID: 25937)
The reverse features the smaller eagle/shield and larger date typical of the five-centavo piece, rather than the normal twenty-centavo reverse. In 1907 the diameters of Philippine silver coins were reduced to decrease bullion costs. The twenty-centavo piece went from 23 mm to 20 mm, making its diameter very close to that of the five-centavo (20.5 mm). In 1928 the Manila Mint had no reverse dies for normal twenty-centavo pieces, and a reverse die for the five-centavo was put into service. This created a “mule,” as a combination of mismatched dies is known. 100,000 of the coins were minted from this single die pair. They’re valuable not necessarily because of the muling, but because of their low mintage and high collector demand.
Reverse: An eagle is portrayed in the center atop an American shield with 13 stars. UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is written around the periphery with the date at the bottom.

About CDN Prices

All CDN prices are based on proprietary market knowledge and technology developed by CDN Publishing, LLC.

CPG® prices represent retail levels. Collectors should refer to CPG values as a starting place for their negotiations, or auction bid reference.

Greysheet/Greensheet prices are wholesale market levels for collectible coins/paper money intended to indicate what a dealer, or wholesale, buyer would pay for the described item in the specified grade. Greysheet/Greensheet represent "sight-seen" values based on a buyer's in-hand review. The actual value can be more or less than this depending on factors including eye appeal and market timing.

Bluesheet (NGC & PCGS) prices represent the highest sight-unseen offers to buy on dealer networks like CDN Exchange. In many cases, there are no active sight-unseen buy offers, so CDN looks to the recent lowest market values for such an item. For this reason, Bluesheet values typically represent the floor of the market for the specified item. CDN only tracks Bluesheet on certain items.

CAC prices are for U.S. coins that meet the standards of the Certified Acceptance Corporation. You can learn more about CAC on their web site.

Price movement is indicated for price changes in the last 30 days.

The prices listed in our database are intended to be used as an indication only. Users are strongly encouraged to seek multiple sources of pricing before making a final determination of value. CDN Publishing is not responsible for typographical or database-related errors. Your use of this site indicates full acceptance of these terms.
