The logo of the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) adorns the reverse of all (except the 5-sentimo) coins of the New BSP Series. It is also featured in banknotes printed since 1993.
The BSP seal is a composite of the Filipino flag, the risen sun and mountains framed by a wheel and ringed by the inscription, "THE BANGKO SENTRAL NG PILIPINAS."
The FLAG symbolizes the country and expresses the Filipino people's nationalism and unity.
The RISEN SUN signifies the bright future and renewed spirit of the nation.
The MOUNTAINS represent stability and the WHEEL signifies movement and industry, the key to the nation's economic progress.
