| Aanvullende informatie |
Costa Rica's early gold coinage emerged from the Casa de Moneda de San José, established in 1825 — one of the first mints in Central America following independence from the Federal Republic of Central America. By 1842, the country was navigating acute political turbulence: that same year saw the dictatorship of Braulio Carrillo overthrown by Francisco Morazán, who was himself executed by firing squad just months later. Coins struck in 1842 passed through an administration that ceased to exist before the year ended.
