20 Dollars Potsdam

Liberia's early 2000s commemorative program produced dozens of $20 silver pieces targeting the collector market almost exclusively, with virtually no connection to domestic circulation or monetary policy. The Potsdam issue belongs to a sprawling series of world landmark coins contracted through foreign minting houses and sold directly to dealers and telemarketing operations — a revenue strategy Liberia leaned on heavily during a period when the Charles Taylor government was under international sanctions.
