Obverse
On the obverse, the coin displays the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The image includes a leopards head set above a stone slab, flanked by an elephant tusk and a spear. Inscriptions and a decorative border surround the emblem.
Reverse
The reverse side presents the megalodon in a striking encounter with a blue whale, underscoring its enormous size compared to the largest creature alive today. Megalodon is thought to have appeared about 23 million years ago and thrived in warm oceans filled with marine mammals for millions of years.
History
During the Miocene and Pliocene eras, megalodon reached its height, hunting large prey such as whales, dolphins, and seals in seas across the world. Scientists estimate that megalodon disappeared about 3.6 million years ago, most likely because of cooler ocean waters, less available prey, changing currents, and growing competition from rising predators like great white sharks and orcas.
