Collectible World War II Money: U.S. & Philippine Coins | NumismaTalks

During World War II, over a million American service members in the Pacific Theater often brought home unique souvenirs from the Philippines—including U.S. Philippine coins minted for the islands but bearing “United States of America.” What's the story behind these U.S. Philippine coins? Are they rare, valuable, or part of a hidden treasure in a relative’s collection of wartime keepsakes? In this richly illustrated presentation, Dennis Tucker tells about these special World War II-related coins and their history starting in the early 1900s. Along the way, you'll learn about the unique historical and numismatic connection between the United States and the Philippine Islands.
