| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Benin is depicted centrally in the field, featuring a quartered shield with a castle, a star, a palm tree, and a sailing ship, supported on the left by a lion and on the right by a leopard. A ribbon at the base of the shield bears the national motto 'FRATERNITE JUSTICE TRAVAIL' in relief. The legend 'REPUBLIQUE DU BENIN' arcs along the upper periphery in bold Latin lettering. The denomination '1000 FRANCS CFA' is inscribed in two lines at the lower portion of the field beneath the coat of arms. |
