3697) The Story of Daniel Boone, Frontiersman, Cameroon: 250th Anniversary of Daniel Boone’s first attempt at leading settlers along the Wilderness Trail through the Cumberland Gap into Kentucky in 1773: A 2000 Francs 1-oz Silver Colourised BU Coin: Date/Year of Coin issue: 2023:
“Daniel Boone - the Frontiersman:
When NBC announced plans to broadcast a one-hour
television show based on the life and exploits of legendary frontiersman Daniel
Boone, the lead role fell upon Fess Parker.
While it
had been nearly a decade since the 6'5" blue-eyed actor played Davy
Crockett for a series of Walt Disney adventures that aired on ABC from 1954 to
1955, the Peacock Network struck gold with Daniel Boone that ran for six years
from 1964 to 1970.
The Legendary Life Of Daniel Boone:
Daniel Boone’s life and his exploits included blazing the Wilderness Road that ran
from Tennessee to Kentucky through the Cumberland Gap.
The road was the US's first migration highway and became the main thoroughfare for Americans
heading west into the new promised land of Kentucky from 1775 to about 1820.
In
its early days the trip was not for the faint of heart.
Boone’s 16-year-old son
James was killed in an Indian attack along the route in 1773, his 13-year-old
daughter Jemima was captured by Shawnee Indians in 1776 (Boone freed her in a
daring rescue two days later), and his brother Ned was killed by Shawnee
warriors while hunting with Daniel in 1780.
Daniel himself was captured and
held prisoner by this same tribe for four months in 1778 before he made his own
daring escape.
What is the Cumberland Gap?
The Cumberland Gap is a pass in the Eastern United States
through the long ridge of the Cumberland Mountains, within the Appalachian
Mountains and near the tripoint of Kentucky, Virginia, and Tennessee. At an
elevation of 1,631 feet (497 m) above sea level, it is famous in American
colonial history for its role as a key passageway through the lower central
Appalachians.

Tennessee on the left and Kentucky on the right, from Cumberland Gap
Long used by Native American nations, the Cumberland Gap
was brought to the attention of settlers in 1750 by Thomas Walker, a Virginia
physician and explorer. The path was used by a team of frontiersmen led by
Daniel Boone, making it accessible to pioneers who used it to journey into the
western frontiers of Kentucky and Tennessee. An important part of the
Wilderness Road, it is now part of the Cumberland Gap National Historical Park.
250th Anniversary Of First Expedition Through The
Cumberland Gap:
In 2023, to remember the exploits of Daniel Boone
and the 250th Anniversary of his first attempt to establish a settlement in
Kentucky in 1773, Cameroon released this Brilliant Uncirculated (BU)
legal tender 1,000 Francs CFA coin that was struck in a full ounce of highly
pure 99.9% fine silver.
The coin boasts a fabulous eye-appealing colourised
image that shows Boone pointing toward Kentucky.
This image is from a painting
entitled Boone at Cumberland Gap displayed in the House wing of the Capitol
that’s part of a series of paintings depicting depicts America’s westward
expansion.
The murals in the corridor were designed and painted by EverGreene
Painting Studios, Inc., under the direction of principal artist Jeffrey Greene.
As an added bonus, each 2023 Cameroon 2000 Francs One-Ounce Silver CFA Daniel
Boone Colourised Coin will come with a 1968 U.S. Postage stamp featuring Daniel
Boone along with a stone arrowhead.
Daniel Boone was seldom seen without his flintlock rifle which he called the “Old Tick-Licker.”
It was a durable firearm which got its name because Boone said
he could use it to shoot a tick off an animal without hurting the beast!
Daniel’s friend Mingo, an
Oxford-educated half-British, half-Cherokee - in the series was however fictional.
The Coin’s Obverse shows the Cameroon Coat of Arms.
