| Reversbeschreibung | The reverse features a large bust of Lady Diana Princess of Wales facing left in the left field, rendered in fine relief with characteristic short-cropped hair and draped shoulders. To the right, a detailed depiction of the Taj Mahal occupies the central and lower fields, its iconic dome and minarets rendered in perspective. Superimposed in the upper right is an oval cameo portrait of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, inscribed THE QUEEN MOTHER-ROYAL FRIEND / 1900-2000. The legend LADY DIANA arcs along the left border, with the dates 1961-1997 along the right, and VISIT TO INDIA, FEBRUARY 1992 inscribed along the lower periphery. |

The Democratic Republic of the Congo — or at least entities operating under its name — produced a flood of novelty commemoratives around the turn of the millennium, most with no meaningful connection to the issuing country. This piece, nominally issued by the Banque Centrale du Congo, belongs to that wave. Diana's 1992 visit to India, widely photographed and heavily covered in the British press, became stock subject matter for this type of issue years after her 1997 death.
KM#63 has no recorded circulation purpose and was produced for the collector and souvenir market. The Banque Centrale du Congo had no substantive role in commissioning it.
