| Additional information |
Liberia's 1889 pattern issues were produced as part of a broader effort to establish a coherent national coinage, largely driven by correspondence between the Liberian government and American coin manufacturers — the country's monetary affairs were tightly bound to the United States throughout the nineteenth century. Few pattern survivors from this series are documented, and KM#Pn41 is among the more obscure entries, with no confirmed mintage figure in the standard references.
