The first coin of the new series "Prehistoric Life" from the Congo is dedicated to the Tyrannosaurus Rex (short: T-Rex). The motive of the coin struck from 0.5 gram of 99.99% pure gold depicts a T-Rex with its prey. Mountains, forests and two other dinosaurs can be seen in the background. Next to the T-Rex, the inscriptions "TYRANNOSAURUS REX", "68-66 MIO YEARS BC" and the year of issue 2020 are shown. The motive is framed by the name of the series "PREHISTORIC LIFE". The Tyrannosaurus Rex roamed the earth during the time of the Upper Cretaceous.

The reverse shows the coat of arms of the Democratic Republic of Congo. The limited gold coin is delivered in a protective capsule.
