A set of three rare rare, museum quality copper "snake" currencies of spiral form from the Congo. These were associated with tribes of the Lake Leopold II Region, including the Mongo/Ngongo/and Lyembe peoples.
These are thick and sturdy, hand forged, with a high concentration of native copper. They are circa 1900 or earlier, and are mounted on metal museum stands.
