Found a little silver today

Got out in the heat for an hour or two today and found some shine about 2” deep. It’s a 1944 20 centavos Philippine silver. It’s the same size as a nickel. Typically I don’t clean silver but it looks so much better without all the black and it’s not gonna lose any value if I wasn’t gonna sell it anyways.

Could've been brought back to N.C. by a serviceman or woman doing time in the Philippines during WW2. Nice looking find !

I like those Filipinas coins .They were minted at the U.S.MINT during the 2nd world war.

Ha! I was about to post the same thing.

Cool find man. Can't wait until the heat breaks though. It's brutal out there.
