Interesting fact
The 1994 Liberian Roberto Clemente $1 coin is unique in that it features a portrait of Clemente on the obverse (front) side, while the reverse (back) side features a baseball diamond with a quote from Clemente, "I want to be remembered as a ballplayer who gave his all for his team." This coin is a nod to Clemente's legacy as a baseball player and humanitarian, and it serves as a reminder of the impact he had on the world both on and off the field.
