This specimen was lot 634 in Aureo sale 269 (Barcelona, July 2015), where it sold for €3,600 (about US$4,651 including buyer's fees). The catalog description[1] noted,
"* 1990. Cuba. 50 pesos. AU. XI Juegos Panamericanos - Baseball. Acuñación de 15 ejemplares. Muy rara. Proof. (Cuba, fifty pesos of 1990, gold, eleventh Panamerican Games--Baseball; mintage of 15 pieces, very rare, proof.)"
This type is listed in the SCWC but without a photo. Desperate for foreign exchange, Cuba has issued large numbers of NCLT's, many only vaguely related to Cuba.
Recorded mintage: 15, all proof.
Specification: 15.55 g, .999 fine gold, this specimen 15,69 g.
Catalog reference: Fr-53, KM 321.
