| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's late-1990s commemorative program was a frank revenue exercise — the republic issued hundreds of foreign-themed collector coins during this period, most with no domestic circulation and no meaningful connection to Liberian history. This piece, honoring Vienna's Stephansdom, was produced almost certainly for the European souvenir and collector market rather than for any Liberian purpose. The cathedral itself survived World War II largely intact, saved in part because a local Wehrmacht commander, Siegfried Thenius, refused orders to demolish it as Soviet forces closed in on Vienna in April 1945.
