Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 250 Dollars (World War II - Cairo Conference) 1995 from Liberia made of Gold (.999) weighing 15.5 g is that it was issued to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Cairo Conference, which was a meeting of the leaders of the United States, the United Kingdom, and China during World War II. The conference was held in Cairo, Egypt in 1943 and was a significant event in the war effort. The coin's design features an image of the three leaders, Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Chiang Kai-shek, on one side, and the Liberian coat of arms on the other. It was minted in 1995 and has a limited mintage of only 10,000 coins, making it a rare and valuable collector's item.
