Seems like a commemorative coin.
a little search on e-bay, some say its silver and the price is like 7 USD-Thats what theay ask.
it's Cuba- KM #27 so maybe someone with a Krause could give the estimated standart price.

Yup, it's silver, .900 fine (0.18 oz). CV in the 2006 Krause is $7 in Unc. Given the scratches and lack of detail in the hair, I'd say that one's several grades below Unc. CV is $1.75 in VF - but remember that's getting close to bullion value, which has gone up substantially since the catalogue was printed.
