The front of the 1970 1 peso note features an olive-green portrait of José Martí, a national hero, poet, and philosopher, centered on an ochre underprint. The reverse depicts Fidel Castro, Camilo Cienfuegos, and rebel soldiers entering Havana on January 8, 1959. This banknote measures 150 x 70 mm and lacks a security thread.
