Zaire (now the Democratic Republic of Congo), started issuing its own banknotes in 1971 when the country changed its name from the Belgian Congo. From this first issue we are delighted to offer Uncirculated examples of the 10 zaires dated 1977 (P23) They are fairly large with a portrait of President Mobutu in military uniform shown on the front. The arms of the country appear in a frame on the back. Crisp A Unc.
