A new coin, a capsule, a CoA, a case, a presentation box.
The Benin 1000 Francs 2014 silver coin “The Frog Prince” is a charming collector’s issue dedicated to one of the most beloved fairy tales in European folklore. On the obverse, a vivid colored design depicts a young princess in a flowing pink gown and golden crown, gently leaning toward the enchanted frog wearing his own tiny crown. Behind them, elegant decorative scrolls add a touch of magic, while the inscription “Frog Prince” crowns the scene. At the bottom, the year 2014 is delicately placed. This romantic image recalls the famous Brothers Grimm tale, where a kiss transforms the frog into a prince, symbolizing love, transformation, and destiny. The reverse features the official coat of arms of Benin: two heraldic leopards flank a shield with a palm tree, sailing ship, star, and castle, surmounted by a pair of horns. Beneath lies the national motto Fraternité – Justice – Travail and the denomination 1000 Francs CFA. Struck in silver with brilliant prooflike quality, the coin combines storytelling, fine artistry, and national symbolism. A perfect acquisition for collectors of fairy tale themes, literary heritage, and world commemorative coins.
