| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring a shield divided into three segments with a royal palm, rising sun over mountains, and a key between two promontories, surmounted by the Phrygian cap atop a pole flanked by branches. A wreath of laurel and oak frames the lower portion of the arms. The curved legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs above along the periphery, while DOS CENTAVOS curves below, both separated by a border of fine denticles running close to the coin's edge. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's small-denomination coinage of this period was struck at the Philadelphia Mint under contract — the island lacked its own mint facility and would not establish one until decades later. The 1915 and 1916 dates correspond to a brief window of relative political stability between the turbulent early years of the republic and the Liberal Revolt of 1917, which briefly threatened the government of Mario Menocal.
The copper-nickel alloy matched the composition used for contemporary U.S. five-cent pieces, likely a practical decision given the Philadelphia facility and shared supply chains.
