Mbole Ambi Currency.
DR Congo.

Formed from copper, these pieces were exchanged during marriage ceremonies. Copper was worked in Africa several hundred years before the use of iron. This ancient material is typically associated with fertility and water. Traditionally, these heavy copper "anklet" forms were recognized and used as currency for rare but major transactions.
