Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1971 20 Zaires Platinum coin from the Democratic Republic of the Congo is that it features a unique design, showcasing the Hotel Intercontinental in Kinshasa, the capital city of the country. This coin was issued as a non-circulating coin, meaning it was not meant for general circulation but rather as a collector's item. The coin's design highlights the hotel's distinctive architecture and its importance as a landmark in the city. Additionally, the coin's platinum composition and 12-gram weight make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item for numismatists.
