| Beschrijving keerzijde | A richly detailed high-relief composition depicts the sacred objects of the Orthodox Christian sacrament of marriage. Two ornate gold-gilded wedding crowns with cross finials dominate the upper field, resting on embroidered liturgical fabric. In the lower field, a gilt crucifix, a bound Gospel book, a ceremonial candle, two wedding rings, a communion cup and plate, and decorative medallions are arranged in a devotional still-life composition. An architectural outline of an Orthodox church façade appears in the upper left background, and the date 2011 is inscribed in the lower exergue. The Cyrillic legend С ВЕЛИКИМ ТАИНСТВОМ ВЕНЧАНИЯ! curves along the upper border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The "Venchanie" title refers to a Slavic Orthodox wedding crowning ceremony — an unusual subject for a Central African franc zone issuer, and one almost certainly produced for the European collector market rather than domestic circulation. The Republic of Congo issued numerous silver pieces around this period through arrangements with European minting and marketing firms, a practice common among smaller franc zone states seeking seigniorage revenue from foreign numismatic sales. KM# 199 sits in a long run of such issues from Brazzaville with no recorded circulation use.
