The Congo 100 Francs 1992 Wildlife – Peafowl coin is an elegant conservation-themed issue celebrating avian beauty and biodiversity. Struck in copper and certified PCGS MS69, this coin displays rich red-brown tonality, sharp engraving, and excellent surface preservation, making it a premium example within Congo’s wildlife series.

The obverse presents a finely detailed peafowl standing calmly within a lush natural setting. The bird is shown in profile, with a graceful curved neck, distinct crest, and carefully engraved feather patterns across the body and folded tail. Surrounding the peafowl are stylized leaves, tall grasses, and botanical forms that create a layered habitat scene. Along the upper rim appears the inscription “Paon du Congo”, while “Protection de la Nature” runs along the lower edge, emphasizing the conservation message. The year 1992 is integrated into the background foliage.

The reverse features the state emblem of the Republic of Congo, enclosed within a shield. At the center is a lion’s head, symbolizing strength and vigilance, framed by curved horn-like elements and vertical segments. Above the shield are flowing lines and broken chain motifs representing freedom. Encircling inscriptions read “REPUBLIQUE POPULAIRE DU CONGO”, with the denomination “100 FRANCS” clearly displayed below, accompanied by a ribbon bearing a revolutionary motto.

Certified Mint State 69 by PCGS, this copper coin is highly appealing to collectors of wildlife, birds, conservation themes, and high-grade African numismatics.
