Interesting fact

The Pattern 1 Cent (Pattern) 1866 from Liberia made of Copper is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was created as a pattern coin, meaning it was produced as a prototype or sample for a potential coin design, but it was ultimately never adopted as an official coin of Liberia. This coin is particularly interesting because it features a distinctive design that sets it apart from other coins of the time, and its rarity makes it highly sought after by collectors.
