| Obverse description | Central round hole surrounded by a five-pointed star design, each point of the star bearing the initial 'A' for King Albert I, with small crowns positioned between the upper points of the star. The bilingual legend CONGO BELGE · BELGISCH-CONGO arcs around the periphery, separated by a beaded inner border from the central device. The overall composition reflects the colonial heraldic style of the period, with the repeated royal cipher emphasizing the Belgian sovereign's authority over the territory. |
