| Additional information |
The 1994 issue commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Leyte Gulf landings of October 1944 — the largest naval battle in history by number of vessels involved, and the engagement that effectively destroyed the Imperial Japanese Navy as a fighting force. General MacArthur's wading ashore at Red Beach fulfilled his 1942 "I shall return" pledge made upon evacuation from Corregidor.
Struck in a single year with limited distribution through BSP channels, these pieces saw virtually no circulation.
