1 Peso INTUR

Cuba's INTUR pesos were issued specifically for use by foreign tourists, part of a dual-currency system designed to capture hard currency while preventing visitors from accessing the regular peso economy. These tokens circulated only within tourist-designated hotels, shops, and restaurants — the so-called "dollar stores" — effectively creating a parallel economy segregated by nationality and access.

The 1981 date places this issue in the early years of the system's expansion, when the Castro government was aggressively courting Western European and Canadian tourism as a dollar-earning mechanism following the U.S. embargo's continued pressure on foreign exchange reserves.
