Interesting fact
The 50 Cents coin from Liberia, issued between 1976 and 1987, has an interesting feature. It has a unique shape, known as a "modified dodecagon," which means it has 12 sides, but the edges are not sharp and instead have a rounded curve. This distinctive shape makes it easily recognizable and sets it apart from other coins.
