Object/Artifact

-

St. Joseph Museums

The image shows a coin featuring the denomination "5" prominently in the center. Encircling the number, the words "CINCO CENTÉSIMOS DE BALBOA" are inscribed along the rim. The surface has a metallic texture with a slightly worn appearance, suggesting it has been in circulation. Around the edge, a series of stars are embossed, adding to the design. Notably, the coin has some black markings—specifically the numbers "1162" and "344" hand-written or stamped at the top, which stand out against the background, giving it a unique modified appearance. The overall contrast and clarity indicate it's displayed against a plain, dark backdrop that highlights the coin's details.
