| Obverse description | A finely detailed effigy of a lion passant guardant occupies the centre of the field, rendered in high relief with a luxuriant mane and standing upon a grassy groundline. The circumferential legend REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO arcs along the upper periphery in incuse Latin lettering. The date 2000 appears in the lower exergue. The deeply mirrored proof field provides a strong contrast to the frosted devices. |
