| Obverse description | The Cuban national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield divided into three sections bearing a key between two coastal promontories, a royal palm tree, and diagonal blue and white stripes representing the Cuban flag. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian cap atop a pole, symbolising liberty, and is flanked by symmetrical sprays of laurel and oak branches. Two five-pointed stars appear at the lower left and right of the field. The legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 1 PESO is inscribed in the lower exergual area. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a dynamic high-relief composition depicting three male athletes in mid-stride on a running track, evoking the energy and competition of track and field events. The figures are rendered in a vigorous, classically inspired style, with musculature and movement rendered in fine detail. The curved legend XIV JUEGOS CENTROAMERICANOS Y DEL CARIBE arcs along the upper periphery, while CUBA 82 is inscribed along the lower field. The date 1981 appears centrally above a small decorative emblem at the base of the design, engraved by Luis Rodríguez García-Casariego. |
