20 Dollars Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt

Liberia's early 2000s commemorative program was, bluntly, a collector-market exercise with little connection to the country's monetary system. Struck under license by private minting firms and sold directly into the numismatic trade, these pieces never circulated in Liberia. Edith Kermit Carow Roosevelt — Theodore's second wife and the longest-serving First Lady of the early 20th century — managed the White House budget with unusual personal control, reportedly keeping TR on a strict household allowance.
