DETAILED DESCRIPTION:
This is a 1929-M Philippine 10 Centavos silver coin — a 96-year-old piece struck at the Manila Mint during the late U.S. Administration period, just months before the Great Depression would reshape the global economy and the political trajectory of the Philippine Islands. The "M" mint mark confirms local production in Manila — one of the most desirable provenance attributes in the entire U.S. Philippine series, as it places the coin's manufacture directly on Philippine soil.
The 1929-M is a mid-series Manila Mint issue from a decade characterized by relative stability in Philippine coinage production. Struck six years before the establishment of the Philippine Commonwealth in 1935, this coin circulated through Filipino hands during a period of significant social and political development — a time when the push for Philippine independence was gaining steady momentum under the Hare-Hawes-Cutting Act debates and growing nationalist sentiment.
As a nearly century-old Manila Mint strike, the 1929-M offers collectors a tangible connection to inter-war Philippine society. The classic "Female with Hammer and Anvil" obverse and American eagle reverse design had by this point been in continuous use for over two decades, making coins of this era well-recognized keystones in any complete U.S. Philippine date set.
Obverse: Female figure with hammer and anvil — Philippine Islands legend
Reverse: American bald eagle over shield — "United States of America" legend
Mint Mark: M (Manila Mint)
Diameter: 17.5 mm | Weight: 2.0 g | Composition: 75% Silver (.750)

A nearly century-old Manila Mint silver coin from the late U.S. Administration era — a solid addition to any Philippine or world colonial date set.
