Obverse

In the obverse design of the 2026 Colorized Congo World’s Wildlife The Shark Silver Coins, the national coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Congo is shown. The central image features a leopard head, which is often linked to strength and leadership. Alongside it are an elephant tusk and a spear paired with a traditional tool, reflecting elements of the nations culture and environment. The inscriptions include REPUBLIQUE DEMOCRATIQUE DU CONGO, 20 FRANCS, 1 OZ AG 999.9, and 2026.

Reverse

For the reverse of the 2026 Colorized World’s Wildlife The Shark 1 oz Silver Coins, the design presents a Great White Shark swimming upward. The shark is shown from the front with its mouth open, giving a clear view of its teeth and creating a sense of motion within the design. The inscriptions read THE SHARK and WORLD’S WILDLIFE.

History

The great white shark is built for movement and strength in the ocean. Its long, streamlined body and strong tail help it swim quickly, while its rows of teeth are designed for catching prey. Its coloring, with a darker top and lighter underside, helps it stay hidden in the water, making it difficult to spot from above or below.
