| Reverse description | The denomination '10 COLONES' is inscribed prominently in the centre, flanked by stylised coffee branches bearing leaves and berries, a ribbon tied behind the value. The abbreviated legend 'B.C.C.R.' (Banco Central de Costa Rica) appears in the field. The numeral '10' is additionally rendered in Braille dots below the denomination, making this an early example of an accessibility-inclusive coinage design. The design is contained within an octagonal inner rim. |
