| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion shows a golden key between two rocky promontories symbolising the Straits of Florida, the lower-left section bears alternating blue and white stripes representing the original six provinces, and the lower-right section features a royal palm tree set against a rising sun. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian cap and flanked by two laurel branches tied at the base. The circular legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 5 PESOS appears at the base of the field, flanked by the fineness indicators 7G to the left and AG 0.999 to the right. |
