Description
The 1913 (S) Philippine Twenty Centavos - S/S, Allen-11.09a was struck at the San Francisco Mint and carries a small S mint mark on the reverse, to the left of the date. From 1907 the twenty centavos was struck lighter and smaller, 4 grams of 75 percent silver about 20 millimeters across, after the act of June 23, 1906 let the Philippine government lower the weight and fineness of its silver coins; the designs did not change. The obverse is Melecio Figueroa's young woman in a flowing gown striking an anvil with a hammer, the smoking cone of Mount Mayon behind her, with the value above and FILIPINAS below. The reverse shows the American eagle over a striped shield, with UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and the date. On this die the S mint mark was punched twice, one impression over the other; Allen numbers it 11.09a. Catalogue numbers: Allen-11.09a, KM-170. PCGS number 90306.
