Rarest of the Cuban gold series. Not counting the 1916 20 pesos, since it did not circulate. 

The 1915 Cuba 4 Pesos gold coin is indeed one of the rarest and most valuable Cuban gold coins. Here are some key facts about this coin¹ ²:

- *Mintage*: Only 6,300 coins were minted in 1915, making it a highly sought-after collector's item. A small number of proof coins were also minted, with an estimated 100 pieces or possibly even fewer, around 50 coins.

- *Gold Content*: The coin contains 0.1935 ounces of 0.900 fine gold, weighing 6.6872 grams.

- *Design*: The coin features a portrait of José Martí, Cuba's national hero, on the obverse and the Cuban coat of arms on the reverse, symbolizing Cuban pride and independence.

- *Rarity*: The 1915 4 Pesos coin is considered extremely rare, particularly in high grades, due to its limited mintage and the fact that many coins were melted down for their gold content.

- *Value*: Prices for this coin vary greatly depending on condition, with recent auction sales ranging from $3,200 to $8,225 for certified coins. Proof coins, like the one sold for $8,225, are particularly valuable due to their rarity.
