About Costa Rican Colon
The Costa Rican Colon (CRC) is the official currency of Costa Rica, named after Christopher Columbus (Cristobal Colon in Spanish) who arrived on the coast of Costa Rica in 1502. Introduced in 1896, it replaced the Costa Rican peso. The Banco Central de Costa Rica manages monetary policy. Costa Rica is notable in Latin America for its stable democracy, high standard of living, and strong eco-tourism and technology sectors. The colon is divided into 100 centimos, though low-value centimo coins are rarely used.
About Nicaraguan Cordoba
The Nicaraguan Cordoba (NIO) is the official currency of Nicaragua, named after Francisco Hernandez de Cordoba, the Spanish conquistador who founded several of Nicaragua's major colonial cities. The current gold cordoba was introduced in 1991 following a period of hyperinflation under the Nicaraguan Revolution government, replacing the old cordoba at a rate of 5 million to 1. The Banco Central de Nicaragua manages monetary policy with a crawling peg exchange rate that depreciates against the US Dollar at a controlled rate of approximately 3% per year.
