Republic copper-nickel Pattern "Jose Marti" 40 Centavos 1962 UNC Details (Cleaned) NGC, cf. KM32. A scarce pattern issue, unlisted by Krause, struck in copper-nickel like the regular KM32 issue, yet produced with the bust of Jose Marti on the obverse rather than the standard bust of Camilo Cienfuegos. Interestingly the Jose Marti bust was applied for production of the 20 Centavos issue of 1962 and 1968, though ultimately never adopted for the 40 Centavo issue. Attractive and crisp despite the noted cleaning.
