The 2022 1oz Congo Silverback Gorilla 500 Francs coin is my latest addition to my stack.
There are two different Silverback Gorilla series for Congo, the 500 and the 5000 Fancs coins. Both series change the design every year normally alternating from a passive depiction to an aggressive depiction.
Both of these series have the same reverse side featuring the the seal of Congo, with the only difference being the monetary value. I received all of these coins from a company that sends me random silver coins every month. I am a big fan of coins that change their design every year and I may have to pick up a few more of these gorilla coins to finish out my collection.

Yes, I get 4 1oz coins sent to me every month and the company is called Quick Silver. They have different options, from 1 to 10, of how many coins you can choose to receive every month.
It's a nice gorilla coin. I too like it when they change designs regularly !
There are only a hand full of coins that change designs every year, I think it would be great if more of them started to change designs also.
