The Benin 1000 Francs 2014 “German Knight” silver coin is a stunning Proof issue dedicated to the heritage of medieval chivalry. Struck in a unique rectangular shape, it features on the reverse a richly colored image of a German knight clad in full armor, mounted on a spirited horse. The warrior carries a long lance and wears a red surcoat with intricate heraldic details, while his horse is decorated with colorful trappings. Above, the historic German coat of arms with the black imperial eagle on a golden shield emphasizes the national symbolism of the design. Decorative foliage and a medieval castle in the background add depth and authenticity. At the bottom, a scroll bears the inscription “German Knight” together with the year 2014. The obverse presents the national coat of arms of Benin, supported by two leopards, with a quartered shield containing a star, palm tree, castle, and sailing ship, surmounted by buffalo horns. Below is the motto “Fraternité – Justice – Travail” and the denomination of 1000 Francs CFA. Crafted in sterling silver and finished in Proof quality, this coin is part of a sought-after series celebrating knights, making it a prized collectible for enthusiasts of medieval history and heraldic artistry.
