I received this set as a gift for Christmas. It was purchased by my father about 10 years ago and was setting in a closet for years. I have the complete set, George Washington to George W. Bush Jr. and two additional coins, The First Presidential Oath and a coin of the White House.

2000-$5-Republic-Of-Liberia-USA-Presidential-Set---Complete

The White House coin has some damage to it. The other coins are in near AU condition. The reverse on the two single coins is the exact same for each of the presidential coins.


I may sell this set later on, I haven't decided yet. No, this isn't a thread to sell these coins. I'm just wondering about any opinions of the set.

I just stumbled across a few of these, is there any silver content? Do they have any value?

This is an old thread that's been bumped, but some answers are nevertheless useful for future reference.

They are not official legal tender coins of Liberia. They were struck by a private mint in America without the knowledge or consent of any recognized government in Liberia (Liberia was in the middle of a civil war at the time, so it was kind of hard to check). As such, they are not technically "coins", so they are listed in the "Unusual World Coins" book rather than the mainstream coin catalogues. They are cupronickel; zero silver content. Nevertheless, they are not completely worthless; the UWC book lists them at $10-$12 each. Here's the NGC entry for the Oath coin.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
