What is Costa Rica Colon (CRC)

The Costa Rican Colon (CRC) is the official currency of Costa Rica, a beautiful Central American country known for its rich biodiversity and vibrant culture. Introduced in 1896, the colon is named after Christopher Columbus, who is referred to as "Cristóbal Colón" in Spanish.

The symbol for the colon is ₡, and it is subdivided into 100 centimos. The currency has undergone several changes and denominations over the years, with both coins and banknotes available in various values. Currently, Costa Rica issues coins in 5, 10, 25, 50, 100, and 500 colons, alongside banknotes in denominations of 1,000, 2,000, 5,000, 10,000, 20,000, 50,000, and 100,000 colons.

The value of the colon fluctuates against other currencies, influenced by factors such as inflation, foreign investment, and economic stability. Travelers often need to exchange CRC for other currencies when visiting other countries, and understanding its value in relation to currencies like the Azerbaijani Manat can be crucial for budgeting.
