| Beschrijving voorzijde | Within a triangular flan, a lion passant facing left stands on a grassy groundline at center, rendered in high relief with fine detail to the mane and musculature. The legend REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO arcs along the two upper slanting sides of the triangle, while the denomination 10 FRANCS appears in raised lettering along the flat base. The design is set against a deeply mirrored proof field typical of collector issues. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Democratic Republic of the Congo resumed issuing collector coinage almost immediately after Laurent-Désiré Kabila renamed the country from Zaire in 1997 — a renaming that itself voided the entire preceding numismatic catalog of the Mobutu era. These early DRC issues were produced almost entirely for the foreign collector market, with no meaningful domestic circulation. The chimpanzee series falls squarely in that category.
KM#36 is part of a broader wildlife-themed program typical of small-nation mint contracts from this period, where the issuing country licenses its sovereign authority to a European or private mint.
