BSP to launch new P10 coin for ASEAN 2026
The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) will release a special 10-piso commemorative coin in January 2026 to mark the Philippines' chairmanship of the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN).
The coin's obverse side will feature Apolinario Mabini, similar to the current 10-piso New Generation Currency coin.
Its reverse side will display the ASEAN 2026 logo, the BSP logo, and a QR code that links to the BSP website's ASEAN 2026 hosting page.
This integration of a QR code aims to blend tradition with technology, providing convenient digital access to updates on ASEAN 2026 events.
The Philippines will assume the ASEAN chairmanship on January 1, 2026, after Myanmar opted out and President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. agreed to advance the role from its original 2027 slot.
