A new coin, a capsule.
The Congo 240 francs Lunar Calendar “Year of the Goat – Lucky” silver coin, issued in 2015, celebrates one of the most gentle and harmonious signs of the Chinese zodiac. The Goat, also known as the Sheep or Ram, symbolizes kindness, creativity, balance, and good fortune. This coin captures the spirit of luck and peaceful prosperity through a warm, colorful, and expressive design.
The reverse features a charming full-color depiction of a smiling goat with curved horns, shown resting among ripe oranges, green leaves, grass, and blooming flowers. Oranges traditionally symbolize wealth, happiness, and abundance, reinforcing the coin’s lucky theme. At the top appears the Chinese character for Goat alongside the inscription “Year of the Goat.” On the left, a vertical panel lists Goat zodiac years, ending with 2015. At the bottom, the word “Lucky” is prominently displayed with decorative ribbon-like ornaments, completing the auspicious composition.
The obverse presents the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, featuring a powerful leopard head flanked by crossed symbols and banners bearing the national mottos Justice, Travail, and Paix. The country name and denomination of 240 francs are framed by a beaded border. Struck in .999 fine silver with proof-quality finish, this coin is an appealing collectible for fans of lunar zodiac themes, symbolic art, and modern world silver issues.
