| Reverse description | The central field features the large numeral '2000' rendered in a stylized font, the digits formed by a ring of small stars, set against a cosmic background scattered with star motifs of varying sizes. Below the numeral, a depiction of a planet with orbital rings — suggestive of Saturn — occupies the lower central field, evoking the passage into a new millennium. The arc legend 'BIENVENIDO EL TERCER MILENIO' is inscribed along the upper periphery, flanked by two small dot stops at the base of the coin. |

| Additional information |
Cuba's millennial commemorative program of the late 1990s and early 2000s produced a large volume of collector-targeted issues, many exported through European dealers rather than circulated domestically — the Cuban peso's purchasing power at the time made copper-nickel souvenirs largely irrelevant to ordinary Cubans navigating the dual-currency system introduced after the Special Period.
