The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield with a key, a rising sun, and royal palm between mountains, supported by an oak branch and laurel wreath tied with a ribbon in the national colors. The country name REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs along the upper legend. The coin's silver weight and fineness (12 G. AG 0.999) are inscribed at the sides, and the face value 5 PESOS appears along the lower legend. |

The central device depicts three boxers engaged in a bout, rendered in a dynamic, stylized composition illustrative of the sport. A circular legend arcing above reads XIV JUEGOS CENTROAMERICANOS Y DEL CARIBE, commemorating the 14th Central American and Caribbean Games. Below the central image, the issue date 1981 and the mintmark appear, with CUBA 82 inscribed in the lower field denoting the host country and the year of the games. |

Cuba's late-revolutionary commemorative program of the late 1970s and early 1980s produced a dense run of silver issues targeting the collector export market — hard currency the government badly needed as the U.S. embargo tightened economic options. The boxing subject was no accident: Cuban amateur boxing had become a source of genuine national prestige, with Teófilo Stevenson's consecutive Olympic heavyweight golds in 1972 and 1976 elevating the sport to something close to official ideology.
The dual KM and JMA references suggest this type circulated through multiple specialist catalogs, a common feature of Cuban issues where collector distribution was handled through state export channels rather than conventional numismatic trade.
