| Additional information |
Cuba issued a prolonged series of commemorative peso coins throughout the 1990s and 2000s targeting the collector and tourist market, a revenue strategy that became increasingly important as the Special Period's hard-currency shortages persisted long after the Soviet collapse. KM#960 falls within that program. These pieces were never intended for domestic circulation — ordinary Cubans transacted in a parallel peso system while CUC-adjacent collectibles like this moved through dollar-economy channels.
