A coin with some micro scratches, a capsule (please, check photos).
The Benin 1000 Francs 2012 “FIFA World Cup Brazil” silver coin is a striking collectible dedicated to the most celebrated sporting event in the world. Struck in Proof quality, it commemorates the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil, honoring both the host nation and previous champions. The reverse shows a finely engraved globe at the center, symbolizing the worldwide reach of football. Surrounding it are the flags of Uruguay, Italy, Germany, Brazil, England, Argentina, France, and Spain — nations that won the World Cup before 2014. Each flag is meticulously represented, with the name of the country inscribed above, while the upper legend reads “Coupe du Monde de la FIFA, Brésil 2014™”. At the bottom, the year of minting, 2012, is displayed. The obverse features the coat of arms of Benin, upheld by two leopards and surmounted by buffalo horns, with a shield divided into four symbolic sections: a star, palm tree, castle, and sailing ship. Beneath lies the national motto “Fraternité – Justice – Travail” and the face value of 1000 Francs CFA. Crafted in sterling silver, this rare issue highlights both numismatic artistry and football heritage, making it a perfect addition for collectors of sport-themed and commemorative coins.
