| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Cuban national coat of arms is displayed prominently in the center of the field, featuring the royal palm, rising sun, key, and fasces within a shield surmounted by the Phrygian cap on a pole. A curved legend arching above reads 'REPUBLICA DE CUBA,' while the face value '20 PESOS' appears below the arms. The weight '26 G.' and fineness 'AG. 0.925' are inscribed flanking the central device, with decorative stars serving as separators in the legend. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba issued this coin in 1977 as part of a broader commemorative program celebrating socialist and revolutionary figures — Lenin among them — produced largely for export and collector sale rather than domestic circulation. Hard currency was desperately needed by the Cuban government at the time, and foreign-market numismatic issues were one of the few reliable mechanisms for generating it. The Casa de la Moneda struck these in limited quantities with collector-grade finishes, making genuine circulation wear essentially nonexistent on surviving examples.
The KM#41 attribution places it firmly within the first wave of Cuba's silver commemorative series, which began in earnest after 1975.
