Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Non-circulating coin 5 Dollars (James Buchanan) 2000 from Liberia made of Copper-nickel weighing 11.22g is that it features an image of James Buchanan, the 15th President of the United States, on its obverse side. This is notable because James Buchanan was a prominent politician and lawyer who served as President from 1857 to 1861, and his presidency was marked by the lead-up to the American Civil War. The coin's design serves as a reminder of the historical figure's impact on American history.
