  • A unique Collection - Before General Douglas MacArthur left the Philippines in early World War II, he dumped every silver coin he could get his hands on into the Manila Bay in order to keep the Japanese from using them to buy weapons.

So, the Denver Mint came to the rescue, striking these twenty Centavo silver coins and shipping them quickly to the islands. MacArthur Returned as Promised With Bags of Silver
