| Additional information |
The "Statue of Jupiter" here refers to the colossal chryselephantine cult statue created by Pheidias for the Temple of Zeus at Olympia — one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, destroyed sometime in late antiquity, likely by fire. Cuba issued a substantial run of silver commemoratives through the 1990s under a hard-currency generation program, selling collector coins internationally while the domestic peso economy remained largely cashless. The JMA reference prefix indicates cataloguing within the Cuban state mint's own classification system, which ran parallel to KM attribution for export series.
