10 Pesos Fokker Dr.I

The Fokker Dr.I triplane is remembered almost exclusively through Manfred von Richthofen, who flew one when he was shot down over the Somme in April 1918 — though whether the killing shot came from Canadian pilot Roy Brown or Australian ground fire remains disputed by historians to this day. Cuba's affinity for aviation commemoratives in the 1990s produced a crowded series of silver issues, many sharing the same 20-gram format, with distribution largely absorbed by the international collector market rather than domestic circulation.
