| Additional information |
The "Empresa Cubana de Acuñaciones" — Cuba's state minting enterprise — produced collector-oriented issues like this one primarily for the foreign currency market, a revenue stream Havana leaned on heavily following the collapse of Soviet subsidies in the early 1990s. The Condor designation links this piece to a broader Latin American numismatic series rather than any domestic circulation purpose. It never passed through Cuban hands in trade.
