| Beschrijving voorzijde | A highly detailed rendering of the Zunzún (Bee Hummingbird, Mellisuga helenae), Cuba's national bird, depicted in mid-flight with wings fully spread and outstretched tail feathers, occupying the central field. The bird faces right with its characteristic long, slender bill prominently extended. The circular legend INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE TURISMO arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1989 and the issuer name CUBA appear at the lower rim, separated by raised bullet points. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's INTUR coinage was introduced to create a hard-currency parallel economy, allowing the government to extract foreign exchange from tourists while keeping convertible purchasing power entirely separate from the peso circulation used by Cuban nationals. These coins were legal tender only within the INTUR network of dollar-facing shops and hotels — effectively an internal currency border enforced by commerce rather than law. The 1989 date places this issue in the final years before the Soviet collapse triggered the "Special Period," after which the entire INTUR system was overhauled and eventually replaced by the convertible peso.
