The Banque Nationale du Congo replaced the Banque Centrale du Congo Belge et du Ruanda-Urundi following independence, and the Zaïre — introduced in 1967 at a rate of 1,000 francs — was the new state's first major assertion of monetary independence from the colonial currency framework. Thomas De La Rue handled the entire series, as they had for many newly independent African states during this period who lacked domestic printing infrastructure.
The 1967–1970 date span reflects reissues under different signature combinations rather than a single print run. P#13 specifically carries the first signature pairing of the series.
