| Rückseitenbeschreibung | The reverse is printed entirely in terracotta-red and relies on an elaborate guilloche engine-turning that fills the entire field. Two large roman numeral X devices flank a central oval containing the numeral 10 in bold intaglio relief, all set within interlocking lathe-work borders. The institutional name BANCO INTERNACIONAL DE COSTA RICA appears on a scroll banner at the top, with CAJA DE CONVERSIÓN inscribed along the lower border, and the printer's imprint of the American Bank Note Company is faintly present at the bottom margin. |

The Banco Internacional de Costa Rica occupied an unusual position in Central American banking: it was simultaneously the government's commercial bank and, from 1922, the official agent of the Caja de Conversión — the exchange stabilization fund created to manage the colón's fixed rate against gold. Notes issued under this dual authority carried both institutional names, which is exactly what this series does. The arrangement was a stopgap, not a long-term solution, and the bank was eventually reorganized into the Banco Nacional de Costa Rica in 1936.
ABNC printed for dozens of Latin American clients in this period, and the Costa Rican contracts were steady work through the 1920s. Watermark security was the primary anti-counterfeiting measure — no serial number overprints or colored fibers appear on this series.
