Aanvullende informatie

Cuba's hard-currency commemorative program of the 1980s was aimed almost entirely at foreign collectors and was never intended to circulate domestically. The Santísima Trinidad issues belong to a wave of collector-market silver produced during a period when Cuba desperately needed convertible currency, and the Banco Nacional was effectively running a numismatic export operation alongside its conventional banking functions.

The vessel herself was a 112-gun first-rate ship of the line — the largest warship afloat for much of the 18th century — captured and sunk by a British storm following Trafalgar in 1805.
