Cuban Pesos

The Cuban 1937 peso is a scarce issue for collectors.

Despite a large mintage of 11.5 million coins, very few genuine pieces survive, and in higher grades, this date typically brings a solid four-figure price.

Also referred to as the “ABC Pesos” (named after the ABC Party that was in power at the time), Cuban silver 1-peso coins were struck by the United States Mint from 1934 to 1939. The same planchets that were used for U.S. silver dollars were used for the Cuba 1-peso coins. Similar to the treatment of U.S. silver dollars, nearly all of the Cuban pesos were stored in vaults, and many were eventually melted, never having been used in actual circulation.

Never knew about this. Knowledge is the KEY. Try and read about coins and you could remember something so you don't get taken.
