| Aanvullende informatie |
The H.M.B. Endeavour commemorated here is James Cook's converted Whitby collier, chosen for Pacific exploration precisely because its flat bottom allowed it to be beached for hull repairs — a practical necessity that saved the crew after the 1770 Great Barrier Reef grounding. The Democratic Republic of Congo has no maritime history connecting it to Cook's voyages; this is a bullion-adjacent commemorative issued squarely for the collector export market, a revenue stream the Banque Centrale relied on heavily during the economic collapse following Laurent-Désiré Kabila's assassination in January 2001.
