| Obverse description | The arms of the Republic of Benin occupy the central field, depicting a quartered shield supported by two leopards rampant, with a star and a sailing vessel among the quarterings, and surmounted by a buffalo head. A ribbon below the shield bears the national motto in the legend. The circular legend REPUBLIQUE DU BENIN arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 1000 FRANCS CFA is inscribed in the lower field beneath the coat of arms. |
