Congo 10 francs Conservation Wildlife Elephants Fauna PR67 PCGS silver coin 2009

The Congo Democratic Republic 10 Francs silver coin of 2009 belongs to the Conservation Wildlife series and is dedicated to the African elephant, one of the most iconic and endangered animals of the continent. This issue highlights the importance of protecting wildlife and preserving Africa’s natural heritage, combining environmental awareness with elegant numismatic design.

The reverse features a powerful full-body depiction of an African elephant standing in a savanna landscape. Its massive ears, long curved tusks, wrinkled skin texture, strong legs, and trunk are rendered with exceptional precision. In the background, small acacia trees emphasize the natural habitat, while the elephant’s calm yet dominant posture conveys strength, wisdom, and endurance. The proof surface creates a refined contrast between mirrored fields and frosted relief, drawing attention to every sculpted detail.

The obverse displays the national emblem of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, featuring a central shield with a leopard head, flanked by a spear and an ivory tusk. The motto elements symbolizing justice, peace, and labor are clearly integrated, along with the country name, denomination, and date arranged in a balanced circular composition.

Struck in silver with proof quality, this coin is certified by PCGS as PR67 Deep Cameo, confirming its strong eye appeal and high preservation level. Issued in 2009 as part of a conservation-themed program, it is an excellent addition for collectors of wildlife, African issues, or certified silver proof coins.
