Here's the info i got from Basso and Krause
50 Centavos republic series: 70% copper 18% zinc 12% nickel, 10 grams, 30.3mm
1958
Mintage:5,000,000
Mint: Philadelphia
1964 (minted in 1965 but dated 1964)
Mintage: 25,000,000
Mint: Royal Mint, London
It's probably worth P50-P70 at best if it's in brilliant uncirculated condition. Anything less it's scrap metal. But numismatic-wise, it's a good start-up coin for beginners. |
