| Additional information |
Liberia's early 2000s commemorative program was one of the most prolific — and commercially cynical — in modern numismatic history. Dozens of issues flooded the market simultaneously, nearly all produced by private mints in the United States and Europe under contract, with Liberia's nominal authority serving primarily as a licensing arrangement. Most were sold directly to collectors and never circulated in Liberia at all.
Cleveland is the only U.S. president to have served two non-consecutive terms, leaving office in 1889 and returning in 1893 — which is why this piece exists separately from his first-term issue.
