| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed relief depiction of a striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis) occupies the central field, shown in a low, prowling stance facing left with its characteristically large, bushy tail arched dramatically upward and to the right. Fine engraving renders the animal's fur texture with naturalistic precision over sparse ground vegetation. The series title LES ANIMAUX D'EXCEPTION curves along the upper legend in sans-serif lettering, while the bilingual species name Moufette ou Sconse appears in the right field. The date 2003 is inscribed in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Democratic Republic of Congo has issued wildlife-themed silver coinage primarily for the collector market since the early 2000s, with little pretense of domestic circulation — a country that had just emerged from the Second Congo War had more pressing monetary concerns than commemorative fauna series. This striped skunk issue is notably North American in subject, reflecting the international bullion collector audience these coins were designed to reach rather than any local zoological relevance.
