&lt;br /&gt;
This specimen was lot 3860 in Goldberg sale 67 (Los Angeles, January 2012), where it sold for $207. The catalog description&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;[1]&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; noted, &amp;quot;Belgian Congo. 50 Centimes, 1887. Leopold II. Lightly toned. NGC graded MS-64.&amp;quot; This type was also struck 1891, 1894, 1896 but none are common.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The history of the Congo has long been unhappy. The region was claimed by Leopold III of Belgium in the 1880's as his private domain, ostensibly to end the slave trade which had long afflicted the area. Instead, he instituted a reign of terror as natives were massacred if they failed to yield their assigned quota of rubber and ivory. Finally, after a world outcry, the government of [[Belgium]] annexed the area in 1908 and ended the most abusive practices. Still, few wept when the colonizers withdrew in 1960. Violence and exploitation continue to this day, fulfilling white racists' worst stereotypes about &amp;quot;darkest Africa.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
