Overview

Issued by the Republic of Liberia in 1937, this classic 2 Cents coin features pre-WWII Liberian iconography — a walking African elephant alongside a coastal palm tree scene symbolising maritime trade and national identity.

Key Features & Details:

• Country: Republic of Liberia
• Denomination: 2 Cents / Two Cents
• Year: 1937
• Material: Bronze
• Condition: Circulated / Pre-owned – A genuinely circulated coin that has seen considerable use over its age. The central elephant, the “REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA” lettering, the palm tree and ship details and the date “1937” all remain readable, with heavier surface wear, softening of the finer detail and toning consistent with a coin of this age.
• Obverse (Front): African elephant walking left within a beaded inner border, encircled by “REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA” along the upper rim and a five-pointed star at the bottom.
• Reverse (Back): Coastal palm tree with a rising sun and sailing ship on the ocean horizon, encircled by “TWO CENTS” above and “1937” flanked by stars at the bottom.

Collector Value:

A historic early 20th-century African issue, highly sought after by collectors of Liberian numismatics and fauna-themed coins.
