LOL to the censored Dahomey coin.
Assuming its genuine, I wouldn't be surprised by EF-40, or 45.

Didn't watch the whole video, but I skimmed it. What are you considering purchasing? A point and shoot camera? Yes, I used that for a long time,...
There are professional associations for coin dealers, but they are generally ineffective, corrupt, or pointless. The ANA and PNG come most quickly...

I never understood the distinction between foreign and US coins - if you put + and * and such on US coins, why would you grade foreign ones...
