The series title RELIQUIAS DE LA NAVEGACION arcs along the upper periphery, while the specific issue designation 1a ROSA DE LOS VIENTOS de JUAN DE LA COSA is inscribed along the lower periphery. The year of issue, 2000, appears within the lower portion of the central design.

Aanvullende informatie

Juan de la Cosa sailed with Columbus on the 1492 voyage and later produced the first known European cartographic depiction of the Americas, his 1500 mappa mundi now held in Madrid's Museo Naval. That chart introduced the wind rose as a navigational convention that would define Atlantic cartography for the next century. Cuba issued this coin at the turn of the millennium as part of a broader commemorative series tying the island's identity to the age of Iberian exploration — a politically pointed framing for a state that had spent four decades rejecting the hemisphere's dominant power.
