| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a polychrome enamel depiction of a cluster of Bidens pilosa (black-jack) plants in full bloom, rendered with vivid coloring: white petals, yellow disc florets, and green stems and serrated leaves fill the central field against a mirrored silver background. Four daisy-like flower heads of varying sizes are shown at different heights, creating a naturalistic botanical composition. The series title FLORA DEL CARIBE curves along the upper border in stylized lettering, while the binomial species name Bidens pilosa is inscribed in italic script along the lower arc. The date 1997 and a small mint key symbol with a star appear to the lower right of the floral motif. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's state mint produced a series of silver commemoratives throughout the 1990s targeting the foreign collector market — hard currency the revolutionary government badly needed. Bidens pilosa, the common beggarticks, is a weedy flowering plant widespread across tropical regions and used in Cuban folk medicine. Its appearance in a precious metal series reflects the broader "Flora y Fauna" collecting programs of the period rather than any particular botanical significance to the island.
