| Reverse description | The reverse bears a colorized naturalistic scene depicting a group of Caribbean flamingos (Phoenicopterus ruber) wading in shallow water, rendered in vivid pink and white tones against a naturalistic background. The curved legend FAUNA DEL CARIBE arcs along the upper periphery, with FLAMENCOS continuing along the lower portion of the design. The date 1994 and mintmark appear to the right within the composition. The colorization technique enhances the lifelike quality of the flamingos' plumage, making this a visually striking example of late 20th-century Cuban commemorative coinage. |
