| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a dynamic high-relief scene of two male boxers in close combat, rendered in fine detail with both athletes shown mid-exchange, wearing boxing gloves and athletic shorts. The composition fills the central field with considerable artistic energy, capturing the physicality and tension of the bout. The legend 'XXV JEUX OLYMPIQUES' arcs along the upper periphery in bold letters, with the year '1992' positioned to the right, commemorating the Barcelona Summer Olympic Games. The year of issue '1991' appears in the lower exergue beneath the figural design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Republic of the Congo issued this piece as part of the wave of commemorative francs CFA that flooded the market in the late 1980s and early 1990s, largely sold through European numismatic distributors rather than circulated domestically. The 1992 Barcelona Games generated an extraordinary volume of such issues from francophone African states — most struck at the Monnaie de Paris under licensing arrangements that effectively made France the de facto producer of "Congolese" commemoratives. Collector demand, not monetary need, drove every decision here.
