| Obverse description | A detailed roaring lion's head in left profile occupies the central inner circle, rendered in high relief with fine engraving of the mane and facial features. Surrounding the inner circle, the legend REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO arcs around the intermediate ring. The outer border carries the legend BANQUE CENTRALE at the top, with the date split 19 99 on either side and the denomination 5 FRANCS at the bottom, all separated by five-pointed stars. The overall design is arranged in three concentric zones, creating a layered, medallic appearance. |
