Jose Rizal Philippines Stamp during US Administration

Here's another piece of history of the ASEAN region, where the stamp marks the administration of Philippines by United States. That is part of the fun I had in sorting out old stamps.

I think the person being depicted in the stamp is Jose Rizal, but do correct me if I am wrong. However, I am not sure what the O. B. stands for in this case. It is interesting that the currency used back then was centavds. Is that a smaller unit compared to peso?
