Interesting fact

The Liberian 2 cents pattern coin from 1868 is a rare and unique coin that was never officially issued or circulated. It was struck as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a trial or sample coin to test the design and production process. As a result, only a small number of these coins were produced, making them highly sought after by collectors.
