Thomas De La Rue printed the Costa Rican 500 Colones series through much of the 1980s, a decade when the Banco Central was managing the aftermath of a severe balance-of-payments crisis that had forced Costa Rica to suspend external debt payments in 1981 — the first Latin American country to do so in that cycle. The colón had lost roughly two-thirds of its value against the dollar by mid-decade, which made high-denomination notes like this one considerably more practical in daily use than they had been at the series' outset.
Series C runs from 1987 to 1989, overlapping with IMF structural adjustment negotiations that reshaped the central bank's operational mandate.
