Nitka zabezpieczająca:

Na banknocie znajdują się dwie nitki zabezpieczające; cieńsza znajduje się po prawej stronie portretu José Figueresa Ferrera i jest widoczna tylko pod światło. Grubsza nić jest koloru zielonego, znajduje się najdalej po lewej stronie banknotu i jest przepleciona/przepuszczona przez banknot z funkcją holograficzną.

Funkcja holograficzna - kształty kół zębatych poruszają się po nitce, gdy banknot jest przechylany.

Mapa Kostaryki w prawym górnym rogu awersu jest również wydrukowana farbą zmieniającą kolor - zmienia kolory między fioletowym a magentą:

Security thread:

There are two security threads present on the banknote; the thinner one is to the right of the portrait  ofJosé Figueres Ferrer and is only visible under a backlight. The thicker one is green coloured, is to the farthest left of the note, and is interwoven/windowed through the note with holographic feature.

Holographic feature - gear shapes move around the thread when the note is tilted.
