| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse of this bimetallic trial piece features a plain copper-nickel center plug struck with the two-line inscription 'MUESTRA / LATON' in large incuse block letters centered in the field, indicating the alloy composition of the trial ring ('latón' meaning brass in Spanish). The brass outer ring is left entirely blank, serving solely to demonstrate the bimetallic format. The overall design is intentionally utilitarian, characteristic of a reverse composition trial (essai de revers) used to evaluate the planchet material and striking characteristics prior to final production approval. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Bartolomé de las Casas spent decades lobbying the Spanish Crown to end the encomienda system in the Caribbean, and his 1542 *Brevísima relación de la destrucción de las Indias* directly prompted the New Laws that same year — legislation the colonists of Hispaniola and Cuba promptly ignored. Cuba's decision to honor him on a bimetallic issue in 1992 landed on the 500th anniversary of Columbus's first voyage, a moment when the entire hemisphere was debating exactly what that anniversary meant.
This is a reverse trial piece — a uniface or partial strike used to evaluate die quality and metal flow before committing to full production runs. The JMA reference placing it within PPV11 suggests it passed through Empresa Cubana de Acuñaciones' internal approval sequence but may never have seen authorized circulation.
