| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's 1981 gold program was part of a broader hard-currency export strategy — coins sold to foreign collectors and capitalist-market dealers generated the convertible currency the revolutionary government desperately needed but couldn't earn through ordinary trade. The Niña issue belonged to a series commemorating Columbus's 1492 voyage, timed to build momentum roughly a decade ahead of the quincentenary.
The .917 fineness follows the old 22-karat crown gold standard, a deliberate choice that aligned Cuban collector issues with internationally recognized bullion norms and eased foreign sales.
