Costa Rica 500 colones “200 Años de la Anexión del Partido de Nicoya” 1824–2024, 2024, bimetallic coin, PR67 PCGS. This commemorative issue honors the bicentennial of the historic decision by Nicoya to join Costa Rica, a peaceful act of self-determination that shaped the nation’s territorial and cultural identity.

The obverse presents a beautifully detailed composition: a traditional female figure with a long braid and folkloric dress spreads a flowing red and white flag, symbolizing unity and patriotism. Behind her appears the map silhouette of Costa Rica with the Nicoya region highlighted in green, alongside a majestic Guanacaste tree. The inscriptions “200 AÑOS DE LA ANEXIÓN DEL PARTIDO DE NICOYA 1824–2024” and the motto “De la patria por nuestra voluntad” frame the scene, complemented by geometric decorative elements.

The reverse features the denomination “500 COLONES,” the year 2024, and the inscription “REPÚBLICA DE COSTA RICA” and “BANCO CENTRAL DE COSTA RICA,” all set within a contrasting bimetallic ring and finely textured background. Struck in bimetal and certified PR67 by PCGS, this coin combines national symbolism, historical depth, and modern minting quality. A meaningful addition for collectors of Latin American history and commemorative coinage.
