In 1975, the "Ang Bagong Lipunan" series was introduced with different designs, specifications and denominational mix from the Pilipino series.

All eight coins bear new designs and carry the inscription Ang Bagong Lipunan ("The New Society" in the official language of the Philippines). On September 21, 1972 President Ferdinand E. Marcos established the New Society, a program which has revitalized the industry and agriculture of the Philippines.

 Two new denominations are included in the 1975 coinage of the Philippines. The fifty-piso coin, minted in solid sterling silver, and the five-piso coin, minted in pure nickel, both pay tribute to President Marcos on his tenth anniversary in office.
