| I was asking around about the 500 peso silver coins and some have them but it seems that one is not common. Most have the 1988 (People Power), 1994 (Leyte Gulf Landing), 1997 (Andres Bonifacio), 1999 (BSP 50th Anniv.), 1998 (Carlos P. Romulo) and 1998 (Emilio Aguinaldo). somebody told me that there is another 500 peso Rizal coin? kindly share info please. | |

| That is the coin mentioned by a friend. Thank you very much for the post. It is the first time I have seen that coin or maybe I simply did not noticed before. Thanks for the info. | |

| i like Philippine 500 peso 1997 A. Bonifacio, 1996 Jose Rizal, and 1988 people power. these three were almost the same size and silver content with those from 1975 to 1981 50 peso series. other 500 peso, 200 peso, 150 peso and 100 peso silver coins were smaller or lesser silver content than those above that i have mentioned.
i also note that a lot of modern Philippine silver peso's photos were in included in the Krause world catalog. and the 1996 Jose Rizal 500 silver peso not even listed there.
anyone can send photos and specification to Krause publication. they are welcome to help us include those missing Philippine coinage. | |

| It seems that only silver contents, total weights, number of pieces and dates of coin issues are the data you can easily access. I find it hard to get the official size (diameter and thickness). Sometimes it (diameter) is included and if a coin is almost identical in the other data, then it is safe to assume that they have the same diameter.. | |

| the proof 500 peso photo look like impaired proof. it cost you around $95.00. shipping included. that's proof again the location is important too. if this is in u.s. the commemorative proof dealer buying price might be at bullion value less $1.50. so the buying price will then be only $27.55. based on $35.00/oz. | |

| This what I want, I am trying to contact you about this. I have several relatives in the USA but it seems that they are not aware of how to get these coins. If you can get it for me, kindly email me (al.plata@yahoo.com.ph).. Thank you very much.. | |

| Actually, none of the 500 peso coins i have were bought based on bullion price...
You see commemorative coins are priced differently... other than its silver content, it has other added value like history, mintage etc etc...
personally, im into commemorative coins because more than the silver value, they look beautiful and at the same time, it feels great to own something that is part of our country's history... | |

| Meron akong nakitang 3pcs na 500 pesos Aguinaldo sa Aranque nuong dumaan ako...1.5k php isa ang benta. Hindi ako sure kung mura yon dahil pagkatanda ko ay 1.2k lang sa BSP ang mga yon. | |
