Comment
This coin is a Piedfort, so is minted on a double thickness planchet, but using the final dies, so weight engraved is not matching real weight of the coin.Krause stats mintage as 250 pcs, but Cuban Minthouse gives the oficial quantity: 200 pcs.
Simon Bolivar and Jose Marti, are two extremely important figures in the american nations' independence process.
Interesting fact
The 1993 Cuba 10 Pesos (Bolivar and Marti, Piedfort) silver coin features the portrait of two national heroes, Simón Bolívar and José Martí, on its obverse side.
