Beschrijving keerzijde	A highly detailed, full-colour naturalistic portrait of an eagle owl (Bubo bubo) is depicted facing forward, occupying the entire surface of the owl-shaped flan. The bird is rendered in rich golden-brown and amber tones with intricate feather detailing across the breast, wings, and facial disc. Prominent ear tufts rise at the upper corners of the coin's silhouette, and the owl's large, vivid orange eyes are depicted with striking realism using colourisation techniques. The bird stands on its talons, with its wings folded tightly against its body, conveying a composed and alert posture.

Aanvullende informatie	The Democratic Republic of Congo has issued a steady stream of fractional gold coins aimed squarely at the bullion collector entry market, where sub-gram weights have grown popular as accessible hard-asset purchases. At 0.5 g of .999 fine gold, this piece sits at the lower boundary of what refiners can strike with consistent planchet accuracy — a real technical constraint that makes die alignment and edge definition noticeably harder to control than on heavier flans.
