The opening paragraph said:

"it has been in limited and unofficial use since the early 1990s, and was adopted as an official currency on 8 November 2004. Only exchangeable within the country, its value is currently pegged to $1.08 USD. However, some reported that the rate is 1 convertible peso = 1.12 USD [citation needed]."

How can the use have been unofficial when it was government issued ?

The 1 CUC = 1.12 is wrong, and a misunderstanding. I will remove.
