| Obverse description | The central field features five interlaced royal monograms of Léopold II, each formed by the intertwined letters 'L' and 'II', radiating symmetrically around the central hole. Four of the monograms are surmounted by a royal crown, while the fifth, positioned at the bottom, bears a mantle or ermine symbol beneath it. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend reads 'LEOP.II R.D.BELGES SOUV.DE L'ETAT INDEP.DU CONGO', with a small five-pointed star at the base of the outer legend, all framed by a milled border. |
