Additional information

This piece has no coherent identity. The named subject — Wilhelmina of the Netherlands — was a Dutch queen who abdicated in 1948 and had no connection to the Congo in any administrative, colonial, or monetary sense. The Democratic Republic of the Congo's central bank has issued numerous collector-oriented pieces featuring foreign royals, historical figures, and pop culture subjects with no national relevance, primarily targeting the novelty bullion and souvenir market. This is one of those.
