| Reverse description | The reverse presents a highly detailed, realistically rendered depiction of the Mount Rushmore National Memorial, showcasing the monumental granite sculptures of four U.S. presidents: George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt, and Abraham Lincoln, carved between 1927 and 1941 by sculptor Gutzon Borglum and his son Lincoln Borglum. The sculptural portraits are faithfully reproduced with exceptional relief and fine surface modeling, capturing the grandeur and scale of the original monument set against the rugged mountain face. The inscription RUSHMORE appears in the field, identifying the commemorated subject. |

| Additional information |
Ghana has issued commemorative silver for the international collector market since the early 2000s, producing pieces with no meaningful circulation intent and no particular connection to the depicted subject. Mount Rushmore — a federal memorial in the Black Hills of South Dakota, carved between 1927 and 1941 under Gutzon Borglum — has no geographic, historical, or political relationship to Ghana. The Bank of Ghana's name on the coin reflects a licensing arrangement, not sovereign interest.
