| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Liberia occupies the central field, depicting a three-masted sailing ship at sea, a rising sun on the horizon, a dove in flight, and a plough, all framed within a shield surmounted by a scroll bearing the national motto 'THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE'. A second scroll below the shield bears the legend 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA'. The country name 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA' arcs along the upper periphery in large Latin letters, and the denomination '10 DOLLARS' appears in the lower field. |

| Reverse description | The central field features a highly detailed relief portrait, designed as a visual illusion, depicting the face of an elderly woman with hair gathered in a bun, wearing round spectacles; when viewed differently, the image may also be perceived as a young woman or a sea captain, characteristic of the ambiguous figure illusion genre. An engraver's signature appears in the left field. The legend 'ILLUSION' arcs along the upper periphery in bold Latin letters, and the date '2001' is inscribed along the lower periphery. |
