These are the coins of the Philippines from 1946 to the present. It's the period where you probably started collecting coins when you began your journey as a coin numismatist, as we all did. There are seven series in the Republic of the Philippines coinage.

Aside from business strike coins, the Philippine mint produced various silver and gold commemorative coins and medals. Commemorative coins are probably the most acquired collectible item for coin numismatists in the Philippines. They are minted with better quality and sometimes made of precious metal, either silver or gold.
