Additional information |
Born Maria Teresa Mestre Batista in Havana, Cuba, in 1956, the present Grand Duchess moved with her family to New York City in 1959 when the family property was expropriated in the course of the Cuban Revolution, and later to Geneva, where she met Hereditary Grand Duke Henri while studying political science together. The 40th wedding anniversary commemorative coin shows the couple from a photograph. The wedding date "14 FEBRUARY 1981" is flanked by rose petals on the left and wedding rings on the right. |
