| Beschrijving keerzijde | A finely detailed three-masted sailing barque, the German tall ship Gorch Fock, depicted under full sail and occupying the central field, set within a raised rope border. The ship is shown in profile with all sails set, riding calm waters. A laurel wreath frames the lower portion of the inner field, interspersed with small five-pointed stars, and a circular mint emblem bearing a globe motif appears at the base with the year 1996 inscribed within it. The legend GORCH FOCK arcs prominently along the upper portion of the rope border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Gorch Fock II is the German Navy's sail training ship, launched in 1958 and still in service — one of the longest-serving tall ships in any naval fleet. Benin's decision to issue a coin commemorating a foreign naval vessel has nothing to do with any bilateral maritime relationship; rather, it reflects the aggressive commemorative coin programs of the 1990s in which small African nations with CFA-denominated issues licensed their minting authority to European trading houses targeting collector markets. The coins were never intended for circulation in Cotonou.
