| Opmerkingen |
The 1953 Cuban 1 Peso (Pick 86) was issued specifically to mark the centennial of José Martí's birth — a politically loaded commission given the Batista government's complicated relationship with Martí's revolutionary image. Printing was handled by the American Bank Note Company in New York, the same firm that had produced Cuban currency for decades under successive very different regimes.
The centennial series was a prestige issue, and ABNCo's engraving standards show it. Circulation wear is common; Cuba's 1 Peso denomination moved through a lot of hands.
