Interesting fact
The coin features an image of a polar bear (Ursus maritimus) on its obverse side, which is unusual as the polar bear is not native to the Democratic Republic of the Congo or any other African country. The choice of image may have been inspired by the country's desire to highlight the importance of protecting endangered species, as the polar bear is listed as vulnerable on the IUCN Red List.
