Curious indeed. Since gas and liquid are (I was taught) two different phases, on the face of it the question is non-sensical. I shall await the answer with interest

How do you change a gas to a liquid without going through a phase change?
Why could this be useful?
WHS again, this was my thought process but there is still a phase change is there not?If memory serves, CO2 at STP sublimates. If you let it transition from a solid in a sealed (strong enough) vessel, you get liquid CO2
I assume therefore that if you apply pressure to gaseous CO2, you'd end up with a liquid but it still seems to me to be going through a phase change.
Best guess for use would be refrigeration.

Navcorr, you may need to answer this later.
Was it a special edition to mark the anniversary of something ?
Sorry there's a two *billion* dollar bill? What on earth for?!
