Comment
Simon Bolivar and Jose Marti, are two extremely important figures in the american nations' independence process.Interesting fact
The 1993 Cuban 1 Peso coin featuring Bolivar and Marti is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic hardship in Cuba, known as the "Special Period." This period was marked by a severe economic crisis caused by the collapse of the Soviet Union, which had previously been Cuba's main trading partner. Despite the challenges, the Cuban government continued to mint coins, including this one, which features two of the country's most important historical figures, Simon Bolivar and Jose Marti. The coin's design is a nod to Cuba's rich history and cultural heritage, and its copper composition makes it a unique and valuable collector's item.
