Silver coin 500 Congo francs 2023 – Silver gorilla
€42.00 includes 22% VAT
This is the ninth coin in the Republic of the Congo Silverback Gorilla series of silver coins.
These massive apes live in the forests of Central Africa and are known for their strength, intelligence and imposing size. The silverback gorilla gets its name from the silvery fur that runs down its back and sides. The silverback gorilla is the largest member of the ape family. Adults can weigh up to 180 kg and stand on their hind legs almost 2 meters in height. But despite their imposing size, gorillas are actually gentle giants for the most part. They are shy and reserved animals that spend most of their time eating vegetation and resting in trees.
The coin depicts an adult gorilla holding its baby in its arms.
