| Additional information |
Liberia's commemorative coinage of the late 1990s and early 2000s was a cottage industry unto itself — the government licensed its mint authority extensively to produce foreign-market collectibles with virtually no domestic circulation. This Eisenhower piece is part of that wave, aimed squarely at the American collector market rather than Liberian commerce.
The X# reference confirms its status as a borderline exonumia item in most serious catalogues.
