Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Apollo IX 20 Dollar coin from Liberia is that it features an error in its design. The coin was minted with an incorrect image of the Apollo IX spacecraft, depicting it with a large booster rocket that was not actually used during the mission. This error was not corrected, and the coin was still released and sold to collectors. This mistake has become a unique aspect of the coin's history and has sparked interesting discussions among collectors and space enthusiasts.
