| Reversbeschreibung | A colourized depiction of the Menelaus blue morpho butterfly (Morpho helenor marinita) occupies the centre of the reverse, its iridescent blue wings rendered in vivid applied colour against the metallic field. The legend 'BOSQUE TROPICAL NUBOSO' arcs above the central motif, identifying the tropical cloud forest habitat. Below the butterfly, the scientific name 'Morpho helenor marinita' and the common name 'Mariposa morfo' are inscribed, while the date '2023' appears within the design. Secondary data appears to the left of the central image. |

Costa Rica's Banco Central introduced colorized circulating coinage largely in response to a broader regional push toward visually distinct denominations to aid the elderly and low-literacy populations in differentiating coins by feel and sight simultaneously. The Menelaus blue morpho — Morpho menelaus — is native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America and has been a recurring symbol in Costa Rican conservation messaging for decades.
The acrylic color application on a circulating coin remains technically demanding; field wear causes delamination over time, making high-grade survivors of any colorized circulation issue disproportionately scarce within a few years of release.
