Definition of 'CRC'
The currency abbreviation for the Costa Rican colon. The CRC is subdivided into 100 centimos, which is similar to how a dollar is divided into 100 cents. Historically, the colon has had a peg-like relationship with the U.S. dollar, which is described as a crawling peg. This means the colon is allowed to float within a currency band with upper and lower limits determined by the U.S. dollar's value.
