| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central design derived from the upper portion of the Cuban coat of arms, featuring the Phrygian cap of Liberty surmounted by a five-pointed star and resting upon a fasces. The curved legend REPUBLICA DE CUBA appears along the upper periphery, while the patriotic motto PATRIA Y LIBERTAD arcs along the lower periphery. Weight and fineness designations (12.5 G. 900 M.) are inscribed to the left of the central device, with the face value (50 cts.) to the right. The overall design is rendered in a formal heraldic style consistent with Cuban republican coinage of the period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cuba's 1953 coinage program marked the centennial of José Martí's birth, producing both circulation issues and a number of pattern pieces that never entered production. This 50 centavos pattern falls into the latter category — approved designs that stalled before striking orders were finalized, likely casualties of the political turbulence surrounding Batista's consolidation of power after his March 1952 coup.
The KM#N/C attribution confirms it remains uncatalogued in the standard Krause reference, typical of Cuban pattern material from this period, much of which surfaced through the Philadelphia Mint's involvement in producing Cuban coinage under contract.
