<p>[QUOTE="MEC2, post: 2128005, member: 38692"]It's been nice lately to sorta move all around in new pickup note types recently, and today will be another change up, to this sharp looking Costa Rica 20 Colones specimen/remainder note. If you've followed this thread for long you know I'm a huge fan of the private bank designs done for the 1900 era Costa Rica issues, some great work, and this note is no exception with wonderful color and neat design. The face has a beautiful rainbow and El Presidente is rocking that early late 19th century 'stache, and on the reverse a rich brown and engraving of of the National Monument in San Jose (the capitol, and I think that's actually what it's called, generically enough...)</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Costa%20Rica/CostaRicaBAC20F.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="http://i1089.photobucket.com/albums/i352/MEC2DFW/Currency/Costa%20Rica/CostaRicaBAC20R.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
