| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion displays a rising sun over a key between two headlands, the lower left bears three blue and white diagonal stripes representing the original Cuban provinces, and the lower right features a royal palm tree. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian cap on a staff, symbolising liberty, and is flanked by two sprays of laurel and oak branches bound at the base. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DE CUBA' arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin lettering, while the denomination '1 PESO' appears in bold relief along the lower rim. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed high-relief rendering of the Spanish training tall ship Juan Sebastián Elcano under full sail, depicted three-quarter view sailing over stylised waves that occupy the lower field. The vessel's four masts carry billowing sails with an elaborate rigging of shrouds and yards faithfully rendered. The date '2000' appears in the lower right field near the waterline. The curved legend 'RELIQUIAS DE LA NAVEGACION' arcs along the upper periphery, while 'BUQUE ESCUELA "JUAN SEBASTIAN ELCANO"' is inscribed along the lower and left portions of the border in Latin characters. |
