Interesting fact

The 10 Centavos coin was minted during the reign of Isabella II, who was the Queen of Spain from 1833 to 1868. The coin was part of a series of coins minted during her reign that featured her portrait on one side and the coat of arms of the Philippines on the other. The coin was made of silver (.900) and weighed 2.5 grams. It's interesting to note that the coin was minted during a time when the Philippines was still a Spanish colony, and it reflects the influence of Spanish culture and rule over the country during that period.
