Biggest, yes. Highest denominated, no. That would be the 10,000 Piso gold coin featuring Cory Aquino commemorating EDSA I. Mintage around 1,000 I believe. I think it was issued in 1992 if I'm not mistaken. I would scan it for you, but it's in the safe.

My bad! Forgot about Cory's People Power Anniversary Commemorative!

I'd love to see pictures of it if you ever get the chance.

Jet, what's the grade on that? I have both the IMF UNC & Proof and I'm thinking about putting them in a NGC multi-holder. I'm also thinking about doing it for the 1995 Pope gold series.

It would look something like this:

Mr. FilAm,

Do you have a duplicate proof of that I.M.F. If you happened to come accross of one please let me know. Do you think NGC can put them in a multiple holder? and what is the maximum they can put in one holder? I was thinking to put the series as well including silver in one holder but haven't ask NGC if they can do it. By the way that coin graded at MS69 by PCGS.

FilamCoins

Yes, they will holder it. Max # of coins is 6, but it depends on the size of the coins. Check with them first before submitting. I don't have a dup, but will let you know if I see one for sale.

Do you need any of these:

Mr. FilAm,
I don't need them, 6 modern Gold coins just came back from PCGS including the 10k PISO Proof.
Thank you.

Are these all the modern Philippine gold issues? I know there is supposed to be a BU version of the massive 1977 5,000 Piso coin but have not seen one personally. Anybody own one that they can post pics of? I also wonder if NGC has enough room to slab the two 1977 5,000 Piso coins (proof and BU) in their multi-holder slab.

On a side note: back in 1977, the 5,000 Piso face value converted to @ US$ 677 ( @ PHP 7.38 = US$ 1). In 1992, the 10,000 Piso converted to @ US$ 375 (@ PHP 26.65 = US$ 1) so eventhough the 1977 5,000 Piso is a lower denomination, it had greater buying power than the 1992 10,000 Piso. Just another perspective.
