| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Costa Rican national coat of arms is displayed in the central field, featuring three snow-capped volcanoes rising above a valley with two oceans beyond, flanked on each side by a sailing ship symbolizing the country's access to both the Atlantic and Pacific; a rising sun appears at upper left. A wreath of laurel branches frames the shield on either side. The encircling legend reads 'REPUBLICA DE COSTA RICA' along the upper periphery, with the date below the shield at the base. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Banco Nacional de Costa Rica issued this brass series as wartime tin and nickel shortages forced most Latin American mints to reformulate their coinage alloys during the early 1940s. Costa Rica had relied on foreign mints — principally the Philadelphia Mint — for much of its coinage, and supply disruptions during the Second World War pushed the country toward domestic solutions with whatever alloys were available.
KM#180 spans a five-year window that straddles the war's end, with compositional consistency across the run despite the chaotic global metals market of the period.
