Interesting fact
The Liberation of the Philippines coin from Liberia features an error in its design. Instead of featuring the image of a Filipino leader or a symbol of the country's liberation, the coin bears the image of a Liberian leader, Samuel K. Doe. This mistake has made the coin a rare and unique collector's item.
