There is a significant percentage of african descendants in America, mainly owing to their introduction as slaves, they took to America their traditions and uses, creating afro-american cultures and religions.Interesting fact
The 1992 Cuban 1 Peso coin featuring the African presence in the Americas is a unique and interesting piece. One fascinating fact about this coin is that it was made using a process called Nickel Bonded Steel (NBS), which involves plating a steel core with a thin layer of nickel. This process gives the coin a distinctive look and makes it stand out from other coins made of similar materials. Additionally, the use of nickel plating helps to reduce the risk of corrosion and increases the coin's durability, making it a great option for collectors who want to own a high-quality and long-lasting piece.
