Description
The coin is a standard circulating coin under the BSP Series. The obverse features the coin's denomination, which was the first time a 1 sentimo coin did not feature any person or other design elements. The reverse features the BSP seal and the year of its establishment as a legal institution. The coin remains in circulation, but it is rarely seen because of its low face value.
