Question: are cuban and mexican pesos the same?
Answer: The Cuban Peso (CUP) is one of two currencies used in Cuba. Tourists generally don't use the CUP but rather use the Cuban Convertible Peso (CUC). The Mexican Peso was revalued on January 1, 1993. Pesos dated before that date (Old Mexican Pesos - MXP) are 1000 times less valuable than the New Mexican Pesos - MXN.
