In July 2019, the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas announced that the 20 peso note will be changed into a coin due to the overuse of the banknote with each individual note only lasting a year in circulation. The decision is based on a research by the University of the Philippines. The Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas states that the new 20 peso coin would cost more to manufacture but would last for 10 to 15 years, longer than a 20 peso banknote. The coin is planned to be released in late 2019 or early 2020. In September 2019, the ₱20 coin finally designed and will be released in December 2019. Hints at the design were mentioned by Diokno - that Manuel L. Quezon would be the person featured on the obverse of the coin, as with the current note, that the coin would be two-tone and slightly bigger than the P10 coin, and that there would be other features making it distinct from the other New Generation coins. The coin is bimetallic as did as the previous 10 piso coins
