Interesting fact
The coin features an image of a sun on one side, which is where it gets its name. The sun is depicted with rays radiating outward, and it's surrounded by a circle of small stars. This design is meant to symbolize the warmth and light of the sun, as well as the hope and optimism that it brings to the people of the Republic of the Congo.
