Reverse description The reverse, struck with a contrasting local gilding over the niobium field, depicts a detailed panoramic cityscape of Gdansk (Danzig), Poland, dominated by the Gothic spires of St. Mary's Basilica and the distinctive facade of the Green Gate, rendered in high relief. In the lower portion of the field, two gilded coin effigies are displayed side by side: at left, the Polish 1 Zloty coin with its eagle reverse within a wreath, and at right, a 1 Euro coin showing the European map design. The Euro symbol appears centrally between them. The commemorative legend 10TH ANNIVERSARY "EURO" arcs along the upper rim, and the date range 1995-2005 is inscribed along the lower rim.

Additional information

Liberia's early 2000s collector program produced a sprawling run of themed $5 niobium pieces aimed squarely at the thematic novelty market — this being one of dozens issued under Central Bank authority during that period. The Polish connection almost certainly ties to the commemorative souvenir trade rather than any bilateral relationship, a pattern consistent with how Liberian collector coinage of this era was commissioned and distributed through European coin dealers rather than through domestic channels.
