| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion bears a rising sun over a seascape with a key, the lower-left section displays diagonal stripes representing the original Cuban provinces, and the lower-right section shows a royal palm tree against a mountainous landscape. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian cap upon a fasces, symbolizing liberty, and is flanked on either side by sprigs of laurel and oak. The arc legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA curves along the upper periphery in Latin characters, while the denomination 1 PESO is inscribed along the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | A detailed panoramic view of the Castillo de San Salvador de la Punta, a historic Spanish colonial fortress in Havana, is depicted in the central field. The fortification is rendered in fine relief, showing the characteristic low-profile masonry walls, a round corner tower with a domed turret, and a row of period cannons on wheeled carriages positioned along the battlements. The date 2007 appears in small characters within the field to the right of the fortress. The arc legend FORTALEZAS DE LA HABANA curves along the upper periphery in Gothic-style Latin lettering, while the fortress name LA PUNTA is inscribed in matching Gothic script along the lower field. |
