The Banque Centrale du Congo didn't exist under that name in 1997 — the institution was still operating as the Banque du Zaïre until Mobutu's fall in May of that year, after which Laurent-Désiré Kabila renamed both the country and its central bank almost immediately. This note sits right at that transition: the new name, the new country, the old infrastructure. Masangu Mulongo was appointed governor under Kabila and would remain in the role for over a decade.
The 1 Franc denomination itself was a restatement of intent — the Congo franc replaced the Zaïre at a rate of 100,000 to 1.
