Interesting fact

The 1999 Liberian $1 Columbus non-circulating coin made of copper-nickel has an interesting fact. It has a unique design that features Christopher Columbus's portrait on one side and a representation of the Santa Maria, one of the three ships he used during his first voyage to the Americas, on the other.
