My Collection of old banknotes [Mi Colección de billetes antiguos]
Hello friends. Recently, my collection of coins was joined by one of old Cuban bills thanks to an acquaintance who gave them as a gift and I would like to share with you images of them and a brief review of the history of paper money in my country, Cuba. In 1902, when the island of Cuba was just beginning the neocolonial period, this time under the North American regime, we still did not have our currency. Currencies of different nationalities circulated in the territory and the North American dollar was the predominant one. In 1934, the first banknotes of the Republic of Cuba were issued and they were called Silver Certificates, because they were backed by one-peso silver discs. When the National Bank of Cuba was created in 1948, the issuance of banknotes with gold backing began and the Silver Certificates were demonetized. The denominations of these bills were the following: 1 peso (José Martín), 5 pesos (Máximo Gómez), 10 pesos (Carlos Manuel de Céspedes), 20 pesos (Antonio Maceo), 50 pesos (Calixto García), 100 pesos (Francisco Vicente Aguilera), 500 pesos (Salvador Cisneros Betancourt), 1,000 pesos (Tomás Estrada Palma) and 10,000 pesos (Ignacio Agramonte). All of these are important figures who fought in the Bambi army against Spanish colonialism. At the moment I only have the denominations of 10 (1958 series), 20 (1958 series), 50 (1958 series) and 100 (1950 series) pesos. These banknotes gradually stopped being used after the Revolutionary Triumph of 1959.
Hola amigos. Recientemente a mi colección de monedas se le unió una de billetes antiguos cubanos gracias a un conocido que mes los regaló y me gustaría compartir con ustedes imágenes de ellos y una breve reseña de la historia del papel moneda en mi país, Cuba. En 1902 cuando la isla de Cuba se encontraba recién iniciado el período neocolonial, esta vez bajo régimen Norteamericano, aún no teníamos nuestra moneda. En el territorio circulaban divisas de distintas nacionalidades y el dólar norteamericano era la preponderante. En 1934 se emitieron los primeros billetes de la República de Cuba y se denominaron Certificados de Plata, por estar respaldados por discos platas de un peso. Al crearse el Banco Nacional de Cuba en 1948, comienzan las emisiones de billetes con respaldo en oro y los Certificados Plata fueron desmonetizados. Las denominaciones de estos billetes eran las siguientes: 1 peso (José Martín) , 5 pesos (Máximo Gómez), 10 pesos (Carlos Manuel de Céspedes), 20 pesos (Antonio Maceo), 50 pesos (Calixto García), 100 pesos (Francisco Vicente Aguilera), 500 pesos (Salvador Cisneros Betancourt), 1 000 pesos (Tomás Estrada Palma) y 10,000 pesos (Ignacio Agramonte). Todas estas son importantes figuras que combatieron en el ejército bambí contra el colonialismo español. Por el momento solo poseo las denominaciones de 10 (serie de 1958), 20 (serie de 1958), 50 (serie de 1958) y 100 (serie de 1950) pesos. Estos billetes dejaron de usarse paulatinamente después del Triunfo Revolucionario de 1959.
