| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central field features a vivid colorized scene depicting a group of pirates on a tropical Caribbean shore, with a three-masted sailing vessel anchored in the background amid palm trees and lush foliage. In the foreground, several figures in period costume surround a treasure chest and a barrel, evoking the legendary exploits of the pirate Blackbeard. The name BLACKBEARD is inscribed in green lettering across the upper portion of the colorized inner disk. The series title PIRATAS DEL CARIBE arcs along the upper border of the silver rim, flanked by two five-pointed stars, with the date 1995 inscribed at the base of the rim. |

Cuba issued a run of large-format silver pieces in the 1990s primarily targeting the collector export market, a hard-currency strategy the Castro government leaned on heavily as the Soviet subsidy collapse gutted the island's economy after 1991. The "Special Period in Time of Peace" — the government's euphemism for the resulting austerity — pushed the mint toward anything that could generate foreign exchange.
Edward Teach, the pirate known as Blackbeard, operated largely in the Caribbean and along the American eastern seaboard between roughly 1716 and his death in battle off North Carolina in November 1718. The Cuban connection is tenuous at best, which places this squarely in the category of opportunistic theming rather than genuine historical commemoration.
