The Dahomey Kingdom has a storied history and was a major player in the African slave trade. Mintage = 6,500 Normal attrition and the coins' melt value during the silver spikes in 1980 and 2011 likely decimated the population of this set. 1,000 francs = Ag 1.6541 oz. Some toning near the rims on the observe and reverse.500 francs = Ag .8094 oz.200 francs = Ag .3292 oz.100 francs = Ag .1638 oz. Some toning near the rims and intruding into the fields on both sides.
