| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features an elaborate abstract design centred on a stylised snake or serpentine motif rendered in interlocking curves, evoking the caduceus symbol associated with Paul Ehrlich's medical legacy. Surrounding this central device is a complex geometric pattern of overlapping elliptical rings, reminiscent of an orrery or orbital diagram. A ring of six-pointed stars borders the inner field, interspersed with the orbital lines. The circular legend along the upper rim reads 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA - 2002 - 1$', incused into the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's 2002 "banknote coins" were issued by the Central Bank of Liberia during a period of acute economic instability — the country was in the final stretch of Charles Taylor's presidency, civil war was escalating, and the Liberian dollar had collapsed in practical purchasing power. The pieces were produced by a private mint for the collector market rather than genuine circulation, bundled into themed sets pairing foreign currency imagery with Liberian legal tender status.
The pairing of a U.S. dollar denomination with a 200 Mark banknote design reflects the set's broader theme of historic world currency, not any monetary relationship between the two.
