Obverse description The national coat of arms of Costa Rica occupies the central field, depicting three volcanoes rising above a bay with a sailing ship, flanked by palm trees on either side, surmounted by a rising sun and seven stars arranged in an arc, the whole enclosed within an ornate oval cartouche. Two cornucopiae flank the shield, and a ribbon above bears the legend 'AMERICA CENTRAL'. The peripheral legend 'REPUBLICA DE COSTA RICA' runs along the upper rim in bold Latin capitals, with a dotted inner border encircling the entire design. The date appears in large numerals at the base of the coin below the shield.
