| Obverse description | Central design features the Costa Rican national coat of arms, depicting three volcanoes rising above a coastal scene with two sailing vessels, set within a rectangular shield. Above the shield, three stars are arranged in a row, flanked by seven radiating spear-like rays symbolizing the seven provinces. The shield is flanked on either side by laurel branches tied at the base, with a reeded border encircling the entire design. |

| Reverse description | The reverse displays the denomination and date in three lines of bold raised lettering at center: UN CENTAVO above 1892, all within a plain field. The design is unadorned save for a continuous reeded or beaded border running along the inner rim, lending a clean, austere appearance typical of pattern issues. |
