"Belgisch Congo" is Dutch for "Belgian Congo" - other Belgian Congo coins have the country written in French ("Congo Belge"), and many have the name in both languages.

The coins no longer have any exchange value (that is, you cannot spend them anywhere), but they do potentially have numismatic value. Such value would depend on the coin's denomination, condition, and year of issue.

Given that you mentioned only "Belgisch Congo" and that you mentioned no denomination, I'm going to guess that your coin is is a KM#21, which is a 1 Franc coin made of copper-nickel weighing 10.15 grams and measuring 29mm in diameter. The obverse (front) bears an image of a bust of King Albert of Belgium looking left, with the inscription "ALBERT KONING DER BELGEN" (Dutch - strictly speaking, actually Flemish - for "Albert, King of the Belgians"). The reverse (back) has an oil palm tree seperating "1" and "F" (for One Franc), the date, and "BELGISCH" and "CONGO". The coin would be dated between 1920 and 1929, and would be worth (depending on the date) about US$0.50-2.00 in Fine condition up to about US$30.00-50.00 in Uncirculated condition.
