| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse displays the national coat of arms of Liberia at center, depicting a three-masted sailing ship at sea, a palm tree on a rocky shore, a rising sun on the horizon, a dove in flight, and a plow and spade in the foreground, all contained within a decorative shield. A ribbon above the shield bears the national motto 'THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE' in raised Latin lettering. The date '2003' is inscribed in the field, flanked by the shield on either side. The outer legend 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA' arcs around the upper periphery, and a second inscription 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA' appears on a scroll below the shield. The design is framed by a beaded border running along the coin's rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Victor Hugo died in 1885, and the French state gave him a funeral so outsized it briefly became a political crisis — his body lay in state under the Arc de Triomphe, a honor previously reserved for military commanders, while an estimated two million people lined the streets of Paris. Liberia's connection to all of this is essentially nonexistent, which places this coin squarely in the late-1990s and early-2000s wave of Pacific and African nation collector issues produced for the European commemorative market rather than domestic circulation.
