Cuba did not sent competitors to Los Angeles Olympics; anyways celebrates with this series of coins, the world's most important sports event celebrated every 4 years.Interesting fact
The 1983 Cuban 1 Peso (Discus) coin is interesting because it features a unique design of a discus thrower on the obverse side, which is a nod to the country's rich athletic history and its success in the sport of track and field.
