Interesting fact
The 1998 Liberian Year of the Tiger coin features an error in its design. The tiger's tail is depicted as being on the wrong side of its body. Instead of being on the left side, as it should be, it's shown on the right side. This mistake has made the coin a unique collector's item among numismatists.
