Additional information

This coin belongs to a Cuban commemorative series issued during a period when the Castro government was actively courting hard currency through collector sales abroad, even as the domestic economy operated on a parallel peso system that rendered such silver pieces functionally invisible to ordinary Cubans. The "March towards Victory" theme references the revolutionary campaign of 1958-1959, a subject revisited repeatedly in Cuban numismatics of the 1980s as the government marked anniversaries with foreign-market silver.

The three JMA references suggest this design was struck across multiple years within the 1987-1989 window, possibly with minor die or finish variations between issues.
