Aanvullende informatie	The Republic of the Congo has no meaningful connection to the Sydney 2000 Olympics — this coin exists entirely as a product of the licensed commemorative trade, where small African nations leased their minting authority to European distributors throughout the 1990s. The Banco de Emisiones in Madrid and several Swiss intermediaries brokered dozens of such arrangements, producing pieces sold directly to collectors rather than circulated in the issuing country. KM#35 was struck at a European facility, almost certainly never reached Brazzaville.
