This specimen was part of lot 30415 in Heritage sale 3081 (New York, January 2020), which sold for $4,200.

Each exhibiting a pristine gloss to the fields, close inspection with a loupe revealing no flaws whatsoever. From the El Don Diego Luna Collection." The year 1988 saw the release of many self-congratulatory NCLT's by the Cuban regime. Greeted by disinterest from the world at large, many are now rare.
Recorded mintage: 100 proofs.
