Opmerkingen

The 1961 Cuban 50 Pesos was printed by Státní Tiskárna Cenin (STC) in Prague — a direct consequence of the revolution's break with Washington and the subsequent U.S. trade embargo, which cut Cuba off from the American Bank Note Company and other Western security printers it had previously relied upon. The shift to Czechoslovak printing was part of a broader realignment with the Eastern Bloc that reshaped Cuban institutions almost overnight.

STC had considerable experience printing currency for socialist states and produced the note to high intaglio standards. This is one of the earlier issues in the post-revolutionary series before the Banco Nacional itself was absorbed into state monetary mechanisms restructured through the 1960s.
