| Obverse description | The Costa Rican national coat of arms displayed centrally, featuring three volcanic peaks rising above a valley between two oceans, with two sailing vessels on the waters below and a rising sun on the left horizon. The shield is surmounted by seven five-pointed stars arranged in an arc, representing the seven provinces of the republic. The legend REPUBLICA DE COSTA RICA and AMERICA CENTRAL arc along the upper periphery, while the date 1970 and the issuing authority's initials B.C.C.R. appear in the lower field. The design is rendered in fine detail characteristic of a proof strike. |
