DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
This is a 1945-D Philippine 10 Centavos silver coin — an 80-year-old wartime-era piece struck at the Denver Mint, as identified by the "D" mint mark. Part of the final year of U.S. Commonwealth Philippine coinage, this small silver coin carries a remarkable wartime provenance: struck stateside while the Philippines was being liberated from Japanese occupation in the closing months of the Second World War.
The Denver Mint was less frequently used for Philippine coinage than San Francisco, making the "D" mint mark a desirable variant for collectors building complete date-and-mint-mark sets of the U.S. Commonwealth series. Along with its 20 Centavos and 50 Centavos counterparts, the 1945-D 10 Centavos represents the final chapter of American colonial coinage for the Philippines — independence would arrive just one year later on July 4, 1946, ending over four decades of U.S. administration.
The obverse features the iconic "Female with Hammer and Anvil" design, symbolizing Filipino industry and resilience. The reverse bears the American bald eagle over a shield with the "United States of America" legend — a design that encapsulates the unique dual identity of this colonial-era coinage series. Despite its small size, this coin packs considerable historical weight as a WWII-era, last-year-of-issue, Denver Mint strike.
Obverse: Female figure with hammer and anvil — Commonwealth of the Philippines seal
Reverse: American bald eagle over shield — "United States of America" legend
Mint Mark: D (Denver Mint)
Diameter: 17.5 mm | Weight: 2.0 g | Composition: 75% Silver (.750)

A small but historically significant wartime silver coin — the perfect companion piece to the 20 and 50 Centavos in any U.S. Philippine collection.
