Interesting fact

The 1000 Francs CFA coin featuring David Livingstone was issued in 1996 to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Livingstone's death. David Livingstone was a Scottish missionary and explorer who played a significant role in the history of Africa, particularly in the Congo region. The coin's design features an image of Livingstone on one side and the coat of arms of the Republic of the Congo on the other. The use of silver (.999) in the coin's minting adds to its value and collectibility.
