| Beschrijving voorzijde | At center, the Cuban national flag is depicted above the fortress of Santiago de Cuba, with the El Morro lighthouse prominently rendered to the right. The commemorative dates 1902 and 1952 appear in the field, marking the fiftieth anniversary of the Republic. The curved legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination VEINTE CENTAVOS curves along the lower periphery. The design was executed by sculptor Juan J. Sicre in a refined relief style characteristic of Cuban commemorative coinage of the period. |

Cuba's 1952 commemorative program marked fifty years since the formal establishment of the republic in 1902 — but the political circumstances surrounding the issue were immediately complicated. Fulgencio Batista staged his coup on March 10, 1952, just months before the anniversary itself, effectively hijacking the commemorative series for a government that bore no democratic continuity with the founding it was celebrating.
The Philadelphia Mint struck these on contract, as it had produced most Cuban coinage for decades.
