| 背面描述 | Printed entirely in dark blue, the reverse is dominated by a large bold guilloche underprint carrying the denomination 'VEINTICINCO COLONES' across the centre, with the Costa Rican national coat of arms set within a central medallion. Ornate lathe-work panels fill all four corners, each bearing the numeral '25', while two rectangular text cartouches at left and right carry the inscriptions regarding acceptance at public revenue offices and payment of taxes. A horizontal text panel along the lower centre states the redemption clause referencing the Banco de Costa Rica, with the printer's imprint visible at the very bottom. |

| 备注 |
The 1897 series of Costa Rican colones oro was issued under the monetary framework established by the 1896 Ley de la Moneda, which formally tied the colón to a gold standard and displaced the peso. The "Oro" designation was not decorative — it carried legal weight, distinguishing these notes from earlier fiduciary emissions that had collapsed public confidence during the preceding decade of monetary instability.
American Bank Note Company printed the full series in New York. ABNC held virtually all of Latin America's prestige note contracts through this period, and the Costa Rican government was a repeat client — the engraved plates for the colones oro series reflect the company's highest production tier.
