| Beschrijving keerzijde | A tall palm tree occupies the central field, rising from a small rocky island with low vegetation at its base; a warship under steam is depicted in the left middle distance. The legend TWO CENTS is divided on either side of the palm frond canopy, flanked by small five-pointed stars, with the date 1866 displayed prominently in the exergue. The design is enclosed within a dentilated border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's 1866 pattern issues were produced in the United States — almost certainly at the Philadelphia Mint, which had an informal but longstanding relationship with the small republic as its primary source of coinage throughout the nineteenth century. This particular piece was never adopted for circulation, leaving KM#Pn13 as one of a handful of experimental strikes from a year when Liberia was actively reconsidering its cent denominations. Surviving examples are rare by any measure; pattern coins of this period rarely left the mint in numbers exceeding a few dozen, and attrition since has been considerable.
