| Beschrijving voorzijde | Left-facing draped bust of Liberty wearing a liberty cap adorned with a five-pointed star, with flowing curled hair. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA runs along the periphery, with a small mint mark letter visible in the lower field. The portrait is rendered in a classical neoclassical style with fine detail in the hair and drapery. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | A tall palm tree dominates the central field, rising from a grassy groundline, with the denomination 25 flanking the trunk to the left and Cs. to the right. In the middle distance to the right of the palm, a steam ship is depicted on the horizon. The date 1889 appears in the exergue below the groundline, all within a reeded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's 1889 pattern coinage was produced as part of an evaluation process to establish a workable domestic currency for a republic that had been financially dependent on foreign coin — primarily U.S. currency — since its founding. The copper-nickel quarter dollar pattern was never adopted for circulation, and the series as a whole saw only limited trial production, most likely at a U.S. facility.
KM#Pn30 survivors are genuinely scarce, as pattern pieces of this period were not distributed and many were melted or lost to institutional neglect in the decades following evaluation.
