| Opmerkingen |
The Philippine silver certificates of 1903 were issued under the authority of the U.S. colonial administration following the Currency Act of 1903, which established the Philippine peso at a fixed rate of two to the U.S. dollar and created an entirely new monetary system for the archipelago. The Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington supplied the printed sheets; the overprint was applied to distinguish authorized issues from unissued stock, a precaution reflecting genuine concerns about counterfeiting and unauthorized release in a territory still under active military pacification.
Pick 27A is the overprinted variant within the series — the distinction matters because unoverprinted examples exist and carry different catalog values. Worth verifying which overprint type is present, as the series includes more than one.
