Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1997 Liberian 20 Dollar Silver Coin (Saladin) is that it features an image of Saladin, a famous Muslim leader and Sultan of Egypt and Syria, on its obverse side. This is notable because Liberia is a predominantly Christian country, and the inclusion of an Islamic leader on its currency highlights the country's cultural and religious diversity.
