| Beschrijving keerzijde | A highly detailed, naturalistically rendered portrait of a Kodiak bear (Ursus arctos middendorffi) dominates the reverse field, depicted in a standing or walking pose with fine colorized fur texture applied to enhance realism. The species name 'Ursus Arctos Middendorffi' is inscribed in the field, along with the issue year '2017'. The antique finish complements the wildlife subject, lending depth and contrast to the sculptural relief. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Siberian brown bear (*Ursus arctos middendorffi* is the Kodiak subspecies — Middendorff's bear is a distinct Siberian population named after the Baltic German naturalist Alexander Theodor von Middendorff, whose 1842–1845 expedition across Siberia produced the first systematic zoological survey of the region's megafauna. The Republic of the Congo has no geographic or historical connection to the species whatsoever, making this squarely a bullion-adjacent collector issue produced for the European and Asian numismatic market rather than domestic circulation.
The 62.2g weight is a standard troy-two-ounce specification, placing this in a category of oversized silver issues that proliferated sharply after 2010 as sovereign mints and contracted private facilities competed for collector premiums over spot.
