Anmerkungen	Costa Rica's 1877 peso notes were issued under the monetary system that preceded the colón, which wouldn't replace the peso until 1896. The República de Costa Rica issues of this period were printed by the American Bank Note Company, though the government's fiscal infrastructure remained thin — the country relied heavily on coffee export revenues to back its paper, and confidence in circulating notes was fragile at best. Pick 111 is among the scarcer surviving examples from this series. Nineteenth-century Central American paper rarely survived the tropical humidity.
