NOTES:
On the official page of Central Bank of Cuba (BCC), http://manualmonedas.bc.gob.cu/ManualMonedas/monedas/detalles/CUBA/CUP/336/is showing weight 8.8g, diameter 24.7mm, and describes edge as reeded (technical data), and then, on general description says is segmented reeded.
Four coins from different origins were inspected, and they have average weight 7.45g, diameter 25.1mm, and all have continuous reeded on edge. Will try to find more info, and will ask BCC if they confirm their data or accept it should be corrected.
Interesting fact
The interesting fact about this coin is that it features an image of Antonio Maceo, a prominent Cuban revolutionary leader, on its obverse side.
