正面铭文 REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA 10 DOLLARS
背面描述 The reverse depicts a mythological narrative scene illustrating the legend of Icarus and Daedalus in three successive vignettes arranged vertically across the field. At the top, the radiant sun is shown emitting bold rays, beneath which the winged figure of Icarus is seen in mid-flight. Below, the figure of Daedalus soars horizontally with outstretched feathered wings in elegant relief. The lower portion of the field shows the sea, alluding to Icarus's fatal descent. The curved legend 'MILESTONES OF AVIATION - IKARUS AND DÆDALUS' arcs along the upper periphery, with the date '2003' inscribed in the lower exergue.

附加信息

Liberia's early 2000s commemorative program was prolific to the point of notoriety — the country issued hundreds of collector-targeted silver pieces during this period, most with no domestic circulation whatsoever, produced almost entirely for the overseas novelty market. The program generated foreign exchange revenue but drew criticism from numismatic bodies for flooding the market with thematic pieces carrying little connection to Liberian history or culture.

The Greek myth of Daedalus and his son, who flew too close to the sun on wings of feathers and wax, has no particular Liberian resonance. This piece exists as a product decision, not a national one.
