| Reverse description | The central field depicts a full-bodied Spanish Mastiff (Mastín Español) standing in three-quarter view facing right, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field, with tufts of grass beneath its feet. A curved italic legend arcs along the upper left periphery reading Fauna Ibérica en extinción, while the breed name Mastín español curves along the right periphery. The date 2007 appears as a small engraver's mark in the lower right portion of the field. |

| Additional information |
Cuba's "Flora y Fauna" silver program, which ran through the late 1990s and 2000s, was explicitly designed for the foreign collector market — hard currency generation, not domestic circulation. The Mastín Español appears in this series as part of a dog breeds subset, a recurring theme across Cuban commemorative issues of the period that proved reliable sellers through European distributors.
KM#891 carries a low mintage consistent with the broader program's collector-only profile. These pieces reached Cuba's economy only as export revenue; no example was ever intended to cross a Havana shop counter.
