1868 Spanish Philippines 20 Centimos Silver Coin – Queen Isabella II – Manila Mint – Colonial Empire Issue

$55.00
A bold and substantial silver coin from the far reaches of the Spanish Empire — this 1868 20 Centimos struck in Manila under Queen Isabella II captures a fascinating moment at the very end of her reign. Large, crown-sized, and beautifully detailed, these coins were minted in the Philippines during Spain’s final decades of colonial control in Asia. The portrait of Isabella II — deposed the very same year — makes this a quietly historic “end of an era” issue. Struck in .900 fine silver and weighing just under 13 grams, this piece has an unmistakable presence in hand — far more substantial than most contemporary minor coinage. Condition: Damage. Good details, but solder on perimeters.
