| Beschrijving keerzijde | A dynamic male figure, rendered in an athletic and allegorical style reminiscent of classical humanism, strides boldly to the right with arms outstretched across a grid-lined globe occupying the central field, symbolising the universal reach of human rights. The denomination 50 COLONES appears prominently in the lower portion of the globe design. The surrounding peripheral legend is divided into two arcs: LOS DERECHOS HUMANOS along the upper rim and CONVENCION INTERAMERICANA along the lower rim, separated by raised dots. A beaded border frames the entire design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The American Convention on Human Rights was adopted in San José, Costa Rica in November 1969, making Costa Rica the natural choice to issue a commemorative gold piece marking the event. The convention — often called the Pact of San José — established the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, which would eventually be headquartered permanently in San José itself.
The .900 fine gold specification aligns with the long-standing Latin American commemorative gold standard of the period, not with Costa Rica's everyday coinage, which had effectively abandoned gold circulation decades prior.
