what is the costa rican currency
Costa Ricaâs currency is the colon (â¡), named after Christopher Columbus. It comes in both paper and coin form. The paper money goes from bills of â¡1,000 (called a âmilâ (Spanish for 1,000) or âun rojoâ because of the billâs red color) to â¡50,000, but weâve never seen anything higher than â¡20,000 come out of the ATM.
