The legend LA STATUE DE DAVID arcs along the upper periphery, and the date 2007 is inscribed in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Benin's series of miniature gold issues from the mid-2000s were produced primarily for the European collector market, with actual circulation in West Africa never a realistic intention. This piece is part of that run — a novelty format made possible by advances in small-planchet gold striking, not by any domestic monetary need.
