Interesting fact

The Junkers JU52 coin from Liberia features a unique design, showcasing a German Junkers Ju 52 aircraft, which was a transport plane used during World War II. The coin's design is particularly interesting because Liberia did not have an aviation history or a connection to the aircraft, making it a distinctive and unusual choice for a coin design.
