Actually, there was one denomination that was dropped. It&#x27;s the 10 centavos,&quot; he said.Guinigundo added that the BSP would allot 1 to 2 years to completely demonetize old coins.&quot;It is more challenging to demonetize coins compared to bank notes. It can be extended considering the logistical difficulty of surrendering coins in banks,&quot; he said.
