The reverse of this Gold coin pays tribute to Coolidge's legendary art with a stylized paw print surrounded by a winning poker hand - four aces, symbolizing both luck and laughter. A minimalist yet clever homage to the painter's beloved canine gamblers, this design captures the spirit of fun and sophistication that made the series a cultural icon. The obverse features the Coat of Arms of the Republic of Liberia, along with the inscriptions: "REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA" - the issuing country, "1/1000 oz Au 9999" - the weight and purity of the metal, "12 DOLLARS" - the face value, and "2026" - the year of issue.
