| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Costa Rica at center, featuring a shield with three volcanoes rising from the sea, a sailing vessel in the foreground, and a rising sun in the background. The shield is surmounted by a scroll inscribed 'AMERICA CENTRAL' and flanked by seven stars in an arc across the upper portion of the shield (on the KM#185.2 variant depicted), with decorative mantling on either side. The circular legend 'REPUBLICA DE COSTA RICA' arcs along the upper periphery, while the date appears at the bottom of the field flanked by small dots. The entire design is set within a finely reeded border. |

Costa Rica's shift to copper-nickel coinage in the early 1950s followed chronic shortages of silver and the broader Latin American move toward base-metal subsidiary coinage as silver prices climbed after World War II. The Banco Central itself had only been established in 1950, making this among the first issues struck under its direct authority rather than that of its predecessor, the Banco Nacional.
The type ran for twenty-five years without substantive modification — a span that reflects monetary stability unusual for the region in that period.
