| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features the national coat of arms of Liberia at center, depicting a sailing ship on the sea, a palm tree, a dove in flight, and a rising sun, all within a decorated shield flanked by scrollwork. A ribbon below the shield bears the national motto THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE, which also appears as a curved legend across the upper field. The legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs along the outer border at top and is repeated in smaller lettering at the base of the shield. The date 2003 is divided on either side of the central device in the lower field. The design is struck in high-relief proof finish with a deeply mirrored field and finely beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's early 2000s collector coinage program was frankly a licensing operation — the country issued hundreds of foreign-themed commemoratives with no domestic relevance, produced almost entirely for the international novelty market. KM# 650 is one of dozens from that run. Helen Herron Taft's actual numismatic connection to American coinage history is more interesting: as First Lady, she personally lobbied for the Lincoln cent program and attended the 1909 debut ceremony at the Philadelphia Mint.
