From these excellent sources I learned that the "ABC" Peso was named after a clandestine group of businessmen, and a few politicians known at the time only as the ABC group. ABC got its name from the three alphabetical cells its members belonged to; A, B, and C. The ABC was organized in December, 1931, and soon won national acclaim for its ability to intimidate Gerardo Machado y Morales and his government. When Morales was overthrown in August 1933, these individuals helped Cuba achieve stability after the chaos generated by the uprising. On the Subject of shipping: USPS first class and fully insured.
