| Beschrijving voorzijde | The national coat of arms of Liberia is centrally depicted, featuring a shield bearing a sailing ship at sea, a palm tree, and a rising sun, surmounted by a dove in flight and flanked by decorative supporters. The date 2001 is split to either side of the arms, with the legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcing along the upper periphery and the motto THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE inscribed on a ribbon across the upper portion of the shield. The denomination 10 DOLLARS appears in the lower exergue, with a secondary legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA on a scroll beneath the shield. The entire design is contained within a beaded inner border and a reeded outer rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's late-1990s and early-2000s commemorative program was a straightforward revenue operation — the country was in the middle of a devastating civil war, and the Liberian government issued hundreds of foreign-market collector coins with no intention of circulation, largely as a hard-currency income stream. This piece is one of dozens from that run depicting American historical figures, produced almost certainly by a private mint under contract and never intended to reach Liberian soil.
Sitting Bull died in 1890 at Standing Rock, shot by Indian agency police during an attempt to arrest him amid Ghost Dance tensions — twelve years before Liberia's modern coinage system even existed.
