44 S Phillipines centavo MUCH better pics added

Not exactly a US coin but minted here. Found this in that Mason jar in the basement that had the 1903 Barber dime.

looks like a nice example of this cent. any ddo/rpms you notice?
an 03 10c and 44 s cent, i'd be goin' for a treasure hunt in the nooks and crannies!
I haven't checked for any varieties. My pics are bad, but I would guess that it grades 66. Very surprised it looks so nice after sitting in the basement for 20 plus years in a cardboard 2x2 in an uncovered Mason jar.

That is a nice old copper coin..... nice condition for over 75 years old... Cheers, RickO
That IS a US coin. It says so on the reverse. Philipines was a US territory! Beautiful color! Great Condition!
I will try to take some better more lit pictures later.

Better pics although it makes the coin look a bit less red.

Actually, yes, a US coin, while they were a possession of the US
