Congo Gorilla
The Congo Silverback Gorilla coin series is a popular, low-mintage collection offered by the Scottsdale Mint for the Republic of Congo. The coins feature a different design of the Silverback Gorilla, the alpha male in a family group, on the coins obverse side each year. Each new release in the Congo Silver Silverback Gorilla coin collection depicts the Silverback, generally considered the alpha male of the family unit. Gorilla family units are known as troops and contain only one Silverback, which earned its name as a result of the stripe of silver fur on its back that results from age.
All coins in the series feature proof-like features. Proof-like bullion coins often mimic the appearance of proof coins, with frosted elements to the design set and a mirrored appearance for the background field. The coins in the series are minted with .999 FS.
