| Reverse description | The reverse features a portrait of Ernesto 'Che' Guevara based on the iconic photograph 'Guerrillero Heroico' taken by Alberto Díaz Gutiérrez, known as 'Korda'. A curved legend arcs along the left and upper periphery near the edge, identifying the subject, with Guevara's year of death and the issue year inscribed to the right. The mintmark appears over Guevara's left shoulder, accompanied by the facsimile signature 'che' — the abbreviated signature Guevara employed on banknotes during his tenure as President of the Banco Nacional de Cuba and Minister of Industry. |
