| Additional information |
Issued to mark the centennial of the Court of Appeals of the Philippines, established in 1917 under the American colonial administration as an intermediate appellate court designed to relieve the Supreme Court of its crushing docket burden. The 80-peso denomination is not arbitrary — it tracks the institution's age at issuance, a practice the Bangko Sentral has used consistently for commemorative judicial and governmental centennials.
Nordic gold, a copper-aluminum-zinc-tin alloy developed in the 1990s, was chosen partly for its resistance to counterfeiting and partly for its consistent strike behavior on large-diameter commemorative flans.
