The coin features the Cuban coat of arms at its center, which includes a shield with a key, a rising sun, and three stripes representing the three departments of Cuba during colonial times.

The inscription "REPUBLICA DE CUBA" (Republic of Cuba) is visible along the top edge of the coin.

The denomination "VEINTE CENTAVOS" (Twenty Centavos) is inscribed along the bottom edge.

The design also includes a Phrygian cap on top of the coat of arms, a symbol of liberty.

The top inscription reads "PATRIA Y LIBERTAD" (Homeland and Liberty), while the bottom inscription shows the year "1949". The letters "G.5" are on the left side and "M.900" on the right side, which likely refer to the weight (5 grams) and fineness (900/1000 silver) of the coin.

Collectibility: These coins are sought after by collectors, particularly those interested in Cuban numismatics.
