| Obverse description | Printed in black and blue-green, the obverse carries a central vignette of a sailing vessel entering Havana harbor with the Morro Castle in the background, flanked by two seated allegorical female figures, one holding a cornucopia and the other a staff. Surrounding vignettes illustrate the agricultural wealth of Cuba: a tobacco plant, royal palm trees, a sugar mill with smokestacks, and oxen hauling a cart laden with sugar cane. Denomination numerals appear at the corners, with the issuing bank title and payment obligation text occupying the central inscription panel. |
