| Obverse description | The Liberian coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a shield bearing a sailing vessel above the sea, flanked by two tall palm trees and surmounted by a displayed eagle with wings spread. A decorative colonnade appears below the shield. The curved legend TERRITORIES OF THE UNITED STATES arcs above, while the inscriptions 5 TROY OUNCES and .999 FINE COPPER are positioned along the lower field. The overall design is rendered in high relief with a prooflike finish. |

| Additional information |
Liberia has issued dollar-denominated collector coins featuring American Samoa and other U.S. territories for decades, operating in a gray zone of the international numismatic market — legal tender by Liberian law, but never intended for circulation anywhere. The 141.7g copper format places this squarely in the "art bar" category dressed as coinage.
