Interesting fact

The 2002 Liberia "Goodbye Greek Currency" non-circulating coin is unique in that it features a design that is not typically found on coins. The obverse side of the coin features a portrait of a young girl with a traditional Greek hairstyle, while the reverse side depicts the Liberian coat of arms. This design was chosen to commemorate Liberia's transition from using the Greek drachma as its official currency to adopting the Liberian dollar. The coin's unique design and limited mintage make it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
