背面描述	A colorized depiction of Dice's cottontail (Sylvilagus dicei) occupies the central field, rendered in naturalistic polychrome enamel highlighting the rabbit's distinctive fur markings. The legend 'PÁRAMO' arcs above the central motif, while 'Conejo de monte' and the scientific name 'Sylvilagus dicei' appear below. The date '2023' is inscribed to the left of the central image alongside additional data. The composition evokes the high-altitude páramo habitat native to this endemic Costa Rican species.

附加信息	Costa Rica's cottontail coinage series reflects a broader push by the Banco Central to replace polymer notes in small denominations with longer-lasting bimetallic and treated coinage — a policy shift driven largely by the accelerated degradation of low-value paper currency in the country's humid tropical climate. The acrylic colorization process used here is applied post-striking, a technique increasingly adopted by Latin American mints seeking to incorporate wildlife imagery without sacrificing durability. Dice's cottontail (Sylvilagus dicei) is endemic to the highlands of Costa Rica and western Panama, with a restricted range that has placed it under ongoing conservation scrutiny.
