After being Dahomey for several decades, this African country became "Benin" in the mid-1970's and produced stamps of its own, sometimes using old stamps of Dahomey. At various times it produced locally revalued stamps which are quite difficult to find. These two pages have a good selection of these issues, a number with catalogue values of $12.00-$25.00 each. As they don’t appear to be issuing new stamps, this makes for a challenging new area for a former French colony. Conservative 2024 Scott US$498.50 =
