I suspect they are not worth anymore than face value, but I don't really go for foreign coins. I do think the 1 Rupee is cool; Indian culture must count with the thumb as 1. But I think you should take a picture of that coin by itself, and use it as your personal way of giving people :thumbsup: on treasurenet.

Can I see a picture of the Reverse of the first coin?
I have a few coins very similar but different years and I didn't know if it had the same reverse.

They were made directly after the Spanish-American war, in which, the USA gained control of the Philippines.
"Filipinas" is the in Philippine's people's language.
