Interesting fact
The 5 Pesos (Santisima Trinidad) 1984 coin from Cuba is a unique piece with a fascinating history. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the Santisima Trinidad, a Spanish warship that sank off the coast of Cuba in 1898. The ship was considered one of the largest and most powerful in the Spanish Navy at the time, and its sinking marked a significant turning point in the Spanish-American War. The coin's design features an image of the ship on one side and the Cuban coat of arms on the other, making it a valuable collector's item for both numismatists and maritime history enthusiasts.
