| Beschrijving keerzijde | A detailed depiction of the full-rigged sailing vessel HMS Bounty under sail dominates the central field, rendered with fine engraving showing billowing sails, rigging, and hull riding on stylized waves. To the left of the ship, a colored wind rose compass in red and green enamel is prominently featured. Seabirds are shown in flight against a clouded sky in the background. The legend H.M.S. BOUNTY arcs along the upper periphery, the date 1784 appears vertically along the lower right, and the issue year 2010 is inscribed to the lower left. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Benin issues coins almost exclusively through the Monnaie de Paris under licensing arrangements that have little connection to domestic monetary policy — the 1000 Francs CFA denomination has never meaningfully circulated within the country. This piece belongs to a wave of Pacific-themed commemoratives produced for the collector market in the late 2000s, a genre driven almost entirely by European and Asian retail demand.
HMS Bounty's 1789 mutiny, led by Fletcher Christian against Lieutenant William Bligh, resulted in Bligh completing one of the most remarkable open-boat navigations in maritime history — 3,618 nautical miles to Timor with 18 men and no chart.
