| Obverse lettering | REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO 2021 1000 Francs (Translation: Democratic Republic of the Congo 2021 1000 Francs) |
| Reverse description | A highly detailed, close-up frontal portrait of a Shoebill (Balaeniceps rex) fills the central field, rendered with fine engraving that captures the bird's distinctive broad, shoe-shaped bill, piercing eyes, and intricately textured feathering across the crown and chest. The species name SHOEBILL STORK is inscribed in a curved legend along the upper periphery, framed by a ring of raised dots. The date 2021 appears in the lower left field, while the fineness and weight specifications — 1 TROY OUNCE / .999 / FINE SILVER — are inscribed to the right of the portrait. Concentric engraved line borders encircle the central motif, adding a refined decorative element to the composition. |
