A new coin.
The Benin 1000 Francs 2014 “English Knight” silver coin is an extraordinary numismatic piece combining historical heritage with vivid artistry. Issued by the Republic of Benin, this rectangular Proof coin presents a colorful depiction of a medieval English knight on horseback, fully armored and adorned in a detailed red and blue surcoat with heraldic emblems. The warrior raises his sword in a battle-ready gesture, while his white horse is captured mid-motion, enhancing the dynamic scene. To the right, the coin features a richly enameled shield with the royal arms of England, adding authenticity and historical resonance. At the bottom, a decorative scroll bears the inscription “English Knight” along with the year of issue, 2014. The obverse shows the official coat of arms of Benin: two leopards supporting a quartered shield with a star, palm tree, castle, and ship, topped by buffalo horns. Below appears the national motto “Fraternité – Justice – Travail” and the denomination 1000 Francs CFA. Struck in sterling silver with Proof quality and certified PR69DCAM by PCGS, this coin represents both artistry and rarity, making it a sought-after collectible for lovers of medieval history, knights, and heraldic themes.
