This is not a native American silver coin, but a 193 peso silver coin from the United States Philippines. If it is real money, it should be worth more than 3 at present.

When the Spanish-American War broke out in p>1898, Spain failed to make peace. It was willing to cede the colonies of Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines to the United States, and the United States paid Spain another $2 million as the price for acquiring the Philippines. ? American Philippine 1 peso silver dollar, which has two kinds: large sample and small sample, is a "new product" of the United States after the Spanish-American War. The details, cast in 193-196, show a woman with long hair standing on the front, with a hammer in her right hand and an olive branch in her left hand. Behind her, there is a mountain of fireworks, with English on the edge, "1 peso" above and "Filipino women" below. On the back of the central shield emblem, 13 five-pointed stars are listed on the shield surface, and 13 straight lines are drawn at intervals between yin and yang (symbolizing the 13 states when the United States was independent). On the shield, an eagle with wings spread, an olive branch in the right paw, three sharp arrows in the left paw, and the marginal book "United States of America" and "195" (casting year). The diameter is 38 mm, the weight is 26.95 g, and the silver content is 9%. (Tuya 16.1). The sample was cast in 197-1912. Except for the casting year, the front and back patterns and characters are the same as the sample. 35 mm in diameter, 2 g in weight and 8% in silver. (Tuya -16-2)? In 193, the American Philippine government stipulated that 2 pesos should be exchanged for 1 US dollar, and began to cast a large sample of 1 peso silver dollar. Since 197, why did you change to casting samples? The reason is that the international silver price soared in 195, and the cost of currency materials increased. If the currency materials exceeded the currency price, they would be melted or hidden, resulting in no currency circulation in the market. Thus, a small sample peso silver dollar with equal face value, light weight and color difference appeared. ? In World War II, there was a "peso war" between the United States and Japan. At the beginning of 1942, the battlefield defeat in the United States and the Philippines was set, and the 17 million peso silver dollars stored in the vault of Corregidor Island could not be transported away. As a result, divers were called to sink it in Cabaro Bay. After the fall of Corregidor Island on 9 May, Japan found out about the sinking of silver, and selected divers from the prison camp to go to Cabaro Bay to look for these silver dollars. As it happens, these divers are the original team of Shen Cang. The first person who dived into the bottom of the sea was named Soos. Seeing the hidden boxes of silver dollars piled up like a mountain, he thought that the enemy had guessed the position so accurately, and if he didn't catch it, his life would be in danger. He was unwilling to catch it for the enemy. After repeated consideration, I decided to choose a box of water first, and then think of another method. In the evening, the divers, after discussing it, lifted the wooden box that began to rot and broke it, so that the silver dollar was scattered in the process of rising. Due to the success of the blindfold method, the Japanese side only got about 5% in the end. Soon, the silver dollars hidden by divers when salvaging flowed into Manila, causing the price of local Japanese occupation vouchers to plummet. After the war, the United States sent people to salvage about 5 million pieces, and there are still more than 1 million pieces that have to be buried under the sea forever because the salvage cost is higher than the silver value. ? The American Philippine currency name peso is derived from the currency name of the Philippines when it was a Spanish colony. After the independence of the Philippines on July 4, 1946, the name of "peso" is still used today.
