The Banco Central de Costa Rica (BCCR) has used its official Twitter account to share updates on both commemorative coin releases and key financial information. The posts, published between February 3 and 4, 2026, highlight the institution’s efforts to engage with the public on diverse topics.

On February 3, BCCR announced a new addition to its Fauna de los ecosistemas coin series: “La tortuga carey, especie emblemática de nuestros mares, es la protagonista de la tercera moneda de la serie Fauna de los ecosistemas.
