Reverse description A female allegorical head in right profile, representing the Republic of Cuba, is depicted in the central field in the classical tradition. The patriotic motto PATRIA Y LIBERTAD arcs along the upper circular legend. The date 1898 appears in the exergue below the portrait, separated by decorative elements. The design reflects the late 19th-century neoclassical engraving style characteristic of Philip Martiny's work.
