| Reverse description | Black intaglio engraving on a white ground with multicoloured guilloche rosettes at the corners and sides. The central vignette presents a detailed architectural view of the Corte Suprema de Justicia (Supreme Court of Justice) building in San José, a modernist structure with a sculptural group at its roofline, set against a light aqua underprint. The denomination numeral "100" appears in a dark panel at lower right, and the issuer's name runs in white lettering along the full width of the lower border. |
