• From the introduction of the " English Series " in the 1950s the rate of the peso against the US $ was 2 : 1 ; and as the rate of the $ to UK £ was 2.8 : 1 ; there were less than 6 pesos : £ 1.


• By the time the " Filipino Series " were introduced at the end of the 1960s, the peso : $ rate was 4 ; the $ : £ 2.4 ; or about 10 pesos : £ 1.


• By the mid – 1980s, when the " New Design Series " were introduced, the peso : $ was 25 : 1 ; the $ : £ was soon to rise to about 2 : 1 ; so there were around 50 pesos : £1 ( with variations ).


• When the " New Generation Currency " was introduced in 2010, pesos : $ were around 50 : 1 ; the $ : £ was 1.6 : 1 ; so there were around 80 pesos : £ 1.


• Of course these rates are not necessarily the exact exchange rates available when making purchases – but hopefully they may be of interest, just as the scanned images of my own banknotes in this thread .


• They also include a practical reminder of the " New Design Series " which are soon to be demonetized. Thank you for viewing my thread !
