Obverse description Central field displays the Cuban national coat of arms, featuring the shield quartered with a royal palm, a golden key between two mountain peaks, and horizontal stripes, flanked on either side by a fasces of spears and a Cuban flag. The circumferential legend reads REPUBLICA DE CUBA along the upper arc, interrupted by a five-pointed star at left and the denomination and metal specifications at the lower arc. The inscription 12 G. - 100 PESOS - LATON - AO.917 is distributed around the lower periphery, referencing the trial strike's specifications. The design closely mirrors that intended for the gold issue but struck in brass as a pattern, with bold relief throughout and a reeded border.
