| Additional information |
Liberia's commemorative output in the early 1980s leaned heavily on United Nations-designated international years as licensing opportunities, producing silver issues for an audience that was almost entirely foreign collectors rather than domestic circulation. The UN's International Year of Disabled Persons was 1981 — this coin arrived two years late, which was not unusual for smaller issuing authorities working through third-party minting arrangements.
