| Additional information |
Benin issues coins under the West African CFA franc system but has no independent minting authority of its own — these pieces are produced as legal tender novelties through arrangements with private minting houses, primarily for the collector market rather than circulation. The Cannabis Sativa entry in this series was part of a broader run of botanically themed issues that attracted significant regulatory scrutiny in several European countries upon importation.
