1903 U.S. PHILIPPINES FIVE CENTAVOS PCGS PR67+

This Superb Gem has outstanding eye appeal with beautiful toning and seemingly flawless surfaces. At the lofty grade of PR67+ it is extremely conditionly rare and ranks among the finest known proof examples of its denomination. U.S. Philippine Proof Sets were only produced for five years (1903, 1904, 1905, 1906, & 1908) for a combined total of only 5,384 sets. Of the origional proof production many were either lost during World War II or degraded due to improper storage or cleaning.

PCGS and NGC combined have graded only a miniscule number of U.S. Philippine Five Centavos of any year in Proof 67+ or above. The Combined PCGS/NGC Population for all years in PF67+ is a mere.five specimens with only four examples graded higher (4/17/2023).

PCGS Population: 1/4 (July 01, 2024)
NGC Population: 0/1 (April 17, 2023)
Combined PCGS Population: 1/4 (April 17, 2023)
