1910-S United States One Peso Silver Coin - Low Mintage
Looks better in person
Higher Grade and in original condition
In 1942, over 16 million Pesos in silver were thrown into the sea near Corregidor to avoid being captured by the invading Japanese forces. Majority of those thrown where dated 1907 to 1912 Peso (small type).
Since the war, over 10 million Pesos have been salvaged but are typically corroded due to being in saltwater for a long time. As of 2007, an estimated 3.5 million still remains under seawater. It is therefore typical to see listings in anywhere online about “sea salvaged” US-Philippine One Peso coin and might be even underweight. So many good examples have not survived.
