Interesting fact
The 1997 Liberia 1 Dollar coin commemorating the Burma Campaign is unique in that it features a portrait of General George C. Marshall, the U.S. Army Chief of Staff during World War II, on its obverse side. This is significant because General Marshall played a crucial role in planning and executing the Allied campaign in Burma, which was a critical part of the war effort in the Pacific theater. The coin's design serves as a tribute to Marshall's leadership and the sacrifices made by Allied forces during the Burma Campaign.
