| Obverse description | A highly detailed relief depiction of a Polymita picta (Cuban painted snail) shell occupies the central field, rendered with fine radial engraving lines accentuating its spiral form. The circular legend 'INSTITUTO NACIONAL DE TURISMO' arcs along the upper periphery, while the date '1989' and the country name 'CUBA' appear in the lower exergual area, separated by raised bullet points. The overall design is clean and uncluttered, with the shell motif serving as the primary decorative and symbolic element. |

| Reverse description | The central device features the logo of the Instituto Nacional de Turismo (INTUR), incorporating a stylized Royal Palm (Roystonea regia), Cuba's national tree, as its primary motif. The numeral '5' appears to the right of the logo in a smaller font size, characteristic of the KM#412.3a variety. The word 'INTUR' is inscribed prominently, with the denomination expressed in words 'CINCO CENTAVOS' along the lower portion of the reverse field. The composition is balanced and heraldic in character, combining the institutional emblem with the face value in both numeric and written form. |
