| Beschrijving keerzijde | A cave lion (Panthera spelaea) is depicted in high relief in a dynamic forward-crouching posture, its muscular forequarters raised and claws extended, mouth open to reveal large canine teeth, rendered with finely engraved fur detail. The background features a dramatic prehistoric landscape with towering coniferous trees and a rocky cliff or cave formation rising behind the animal. The incuse legend 'CAVE LION' appears in the lower right field, arcing along the inner border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia has operated as a licensing issuer for the international commemorative coin market since the 1990s, contracting production through European mints — primarily in Germany and Austria — with no meaningful connection between the depicted subject and the issuing nation. The cave lion (Panthera leo spelaea) vanished from the fossil record roughly 13,000 years ago, known almost entirely through Pleistocene cave art at sites like Chauvet and Lascaux and a handful of skeletal remains from permafrost deposits.
