1 Peso Cattle

Cuba issued several collector-oriented peso pieces in 1982 targeting the hard-currency tourist market rather than domestic circulation — the island's dual economy meant these coins were priced and sold in convertible pesos while ordinary Cubans used a separate monetary system entirely. The cattle theme was part of a broader FAO-aligned series promoting agricultural development, though by 1982 Cuba's beef production had been tightly state-controlled for two decades under the National Association of Small Farmers framework.
