Additional information

Liberia has issued commemorative coinage featuring American presidents since the 1990s, producing dozens of portrait pieces with no connection to Liberian monetary history beyond the issuing authority's name. Harrison's inclusion is unremarkable — he appears across multiple series. What distinguishes him historically is the brevity that defines his entire presidency: he died of pneumonia 31 days after his inauguration in 1841, delivering the longest inaugural address on record in the worst possible weather.
