It looks like twenty centavos to me.

Correct.. VEINTE is 20 .. also 2 Roman numeral XX is 20
and CINCO is 5

 

This is what you found 20 CENTAVOS not 5
I want to share this info with you from the Numista website -

 

Thank you Patty for pointing out my mistak. It happens I'm human. Stop speaking Spanish after my first wife. It was over 30 years ago. Again thanks Patty.PS You know what the worst part about it Patty. A beer cans worth more at the scrapyard than this coin. And since we have flights starting to Cuba, I guess in the near future South Florida is going to start seeing a lot more of this garbage. I will be sure to put a lot of them back into circulation so others can share this coin with me. LOL.

 

I respect your opinion but I think it's a beautiful coin

 

Patty I'll tell you what, as more of them start showing up I will put a couple aside for you. But you will have to cover the postage. Since the stamp is worth more than the coin. Patty I appreciate your reply, but on this site I feel like Rodney Dangerfield. I get no respect. LOL

 

Patty I guess I was wrong again this morning.it seems to me this 20 centavo is worth more than I thought. Cuba 20 centavos, 2002-2009
Price, min: $ 0.45 Up to $0.98 PS If it was better looking I would put it up on eBay to see what I could get for it, the only Cuba 20 centavo coins is being sold out of Columbia, and their silver.
