| Additional information |
The Democratic Republic of Congo has become one of the more prolific issuers of small-format gold bullion pieces aimed squarely at the fractional collector market, a strategy that accelerated sharply after 2015 as demand for sub-gram gold grew across European and Asian retail channels. The Peregrine falcon series fits that commercial logic precisely — the bird holds no particular national or cultural significance to the DRC, chosen instead for its international appeal.
