Philippines (under US administration), 1 peso, 1936-M, Roosevelt and Quezon. KM-177. 19.12 grams. Rare type from the Manila Bay "treasure" (a hoard of silver pesos and 50 centavos plus a few bronze medals from the Philippines' treasury dumped into Manila Bay in early 1942 as the invading Japanese Imperial army approached the capital). Bold AU details and minor spots of corrosion confined to the reverse, one of the best examples that we have seen of this rare type recovered from Manila Bay. Recovered from: "Manila Bay Treasure," dumped off the Philippines in 1942
