| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Panama's coinage has always operated in a peculiar monetary arrangement: the balboa exists as a physical coin but the country runs on U.S. dollars, with Panamanian silver functioning essentially as a parallel token currency since the republic's founding in 1903. The 1953 issue was struck at the Philadelphia Mint under a long-standing arrangement by which Panama contracted U.S. facilities for its coinage production.
That year's mintage was modest, and the series saw no further tenth-balboa production for several years afterward.
