Additional information

Liberia's 1889 aluminum pattern issues were produced as part of a broader coinage reform discussion, with the republic evaluating aluminum as a cheaper alternative to copper for subsidiary denominations. The experiments never led to adopted coinage, and pattern survivors from this exercise are sparsely documented — KM#Pn45 represents one of the few aluminum denominations from this trial that has been catalogued with any consistency.
