Thanks for posting, and sharing! I guess pursuant to restrictions re: 'Trading with the Enemy Act', numismatic interest in the U.S. seems a bit light, and I haven't gotten to see very often any Cuban specimens. I found a link to an article hosted online with the Cuban Numismatic Association. I found the background info educational... http://www.cubanumis.com/knowledge/CubanCoinageAsAnAlternative.html
I guess that I will have to keep them as Ebay will not allow the sale of any Cuban coins, regardless of date or mint.
