Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the Rutherford B. Hayes $5 coin from Liberia is that it features an error in the design. The coin was minted with a portrait of Hayes that was mirrored, meaning that the image appears as a reverse of what it should be. This error was not corrected, and the coins were still issued and sold to collectors. This mistake has made the coin particularly sought after by collectors, and it is now considered a rare and unique piece in the numismatic community.
