It had to happen sooner or later.......

I have often stated that if you can think of a subject, it is probably represented on a Non-Circulating Legal Tender (NCLT) coin. The coin just issued by authority of the Government of the West African Republic of Benin is bound to confirm the veracity of that statement. As the first in a series of "Famous Plants of the World", the 100 Central African Franc denominated coin features Cannabis Sativa, colloquially known as Marijuana, Pot, Mary Jane, Weed, Grass, etc. An interesting feature of this PROOF coin, is that if you rub the green leaf (HORRORS), it emits the unmistakable aroma of marijuana image Also, if you look at the date, you can tell the mint engraver was really up on the subject of his art. With a limited mintage of 2,500 pieces, I'm guessing this will be an instant classic image
