I don't have the answer, but I would suggest that you go to this site- The IPL Refdesk (link below). This goes to students studying to be reference librarians and they can probably help you much better than those here (here we basically use yahoo or google).

As a reference librarian myself (though I unfortunately don't work in a large library at the moment) my professional opinion is that this question is a lot more likely to be answered from a print source than from the Internet, and I'll explain why if you're interested:

Short version: if it's both obscure [at least to English speakers] and it happened more than 10 years ago, it's not that likely to be on the Internet. (Always remember the Internet is the size of an ocean but the depth of a pond on most issues.) Since the coin is from 1975 and a topic few people are interested in there just is not a lot about it online.

However, there should be lots more about it in the print materials of a large reference library as they would have numismatic encyclopedias, almanacs, and newsreels from around that time. If you have access to a large public or college library, look at the 1975 index for the New York Times and there will probably be an article- ask the librarian for help if you don't know how to do this as I guarantee you he or she will know what you're asking for. There probably won't be anything in the index under 5 peso coin of course, but look under FERDINAND MARCOS and COINS-International and other relevant words. If they can't find it there, go to the biography section of the library and look in the index of biographies of Ferdinand Marcos for "coinage", or if they have no bios of Marcos look in the most recent book on the Philippines or in books on World Currency.

Sorry I can't help more, but below is a link you should use to ask your question.

Does the US Tax Silver?

Answer by Spotty J
First of all, nothing in the constitution forces anyone to accept anything specific in payment of debts -- that's between you and whoever you owe money to. The only thing the government forces people to do with respect to money is to pay taxes to the government with U.S. dollars, and accept payment from the government in US dollars. Everything else is a private affair. We standardize on the currency that the government collects and spends because it would be pointless and inefficient to do anything else.

In the case of hyperinflation, we'd still all be using the usual currency, it would just take more of it to buy stuff. No, people are not going to start spending collectible silver coins as cash. Actually, people would hoard such things in a high-inflation scenario, not spend them as they would be a way to retain value. Canadian coins are not and will not be legal tender in the U.S. in any circumstance -- though again, "legal tender" refers to what the government collects and spends -- any private business is free to accept anything you have to offer including your dirty laundry, if they are willing to accept it as payment.

This steel clad penny is worth about $.15 to about .00.
If it has been clean then it is worth less. I have about 50 of them.
Now if you had one of the very few copper 1943 pennies then you are talking about lots of money. Over ,000.00 for it.

It sounds like a commemorative coin - legal tender but not standard issue - because standard issue would not bear the inscription "1 oz fine silver".
