| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a detailed relief depiction of the Roman Colosseum occupying the central field, rendered with careful architectural precision showing multiple tiers of arched openings. A large football (soccer ball) rises prominently behind the upper right section of the amphitheater against the mirror-polished field. The legend CAMPEONATO MUNDIAL DE FUTBOL arcs along the upper periphery, flanked by a decorative border of evenly spaced pellets encircling the inner field. The inscription ITALIA 1990 appears in the lower central field, with the mintage year 1989 and a small mint mark positioned at the very base of the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's late-1980s commemorative silver program was tied directly to the island's hard currency crisis — these pieces were never intended for domestic circulation but were minted explicitly for export sale to foreign collectors, generating desperately needed convertible currency for a state increasingly squeezed by Soviet subsidy reductions. The Colosseum issue was part of a broader series marking world architectural monuments, produced under contract arrangements that effectively made Cuban commemoratives a commodity on the international numismatic market.
KM#226 is occasionally encountered with weak peripheral detail on the reverse, attributable to the shallow die preparation common across this series rather than circulation wear.
