Silver Coins
DID YOU
KNOW…
...that for almost 250 years, the galleon
trade between Manila and Acapulco in Mexico dominated the Philippine
economy?
.
…that Mexican cob coins were exchanged for the
Oriental goods brought across the Pacific? (Among natives of the
Philippines, these silver coins were dubbed hilis kalamay due to their odd
shape.)
.
…that the appearance of the first regularly
published newspaper in the Philippines on August 8, 1811 coincided with the
arrival of new coins from the newly independent Latin American states?
.
…that to obscure the origin of the coins and
discourage similar acts of insurrection, the Spanish colonial government
superimposed its coat of arms on these coins and put the marking "Manila
1828"?
