Additional information	The Banque Centrale du Congo has issued gold bullion coinage intermittently since the early 2000s, often targeting international collector and investor markets rather than domestic circulation — the DRC's own monetary economy runs almost entirely on small-denomination francs and, informally, US dollars. This 2025 issue continues that pattern. KM#421 has no recorded die varieties as of this writing.
