| Obverse description | The obverse displays the Cuban national coat of arms at centre, comprising a shield divided into three sections: the upper portion depicting a key between two landmasses over blue and white horizontal stripes representing the sea, the lower-left section bearing a blue-and-white striped field, and the lower-right section with a golden royal palm tree on a green landscape. The shield is surmounted by a Phrygian liberty cap on a pole, with a sunburst radiating behind it. Flanking the shield are two curved olive-and-oak branch sprigs tied at the base. The circular legend reads 'REPUBLICA DE CUBA' along the upper arc and 'CINCO CENTAVOS' along the lower arc, with a raised dot separating each inscription from the branch terminals. The design is bordered by a fine beaded inner rim. |
