| Reverse description | A majestic male lion is depicted seated in three-quarter view, gazing upward to the left against a dramatic African savanna twilight panorama rendered in vivid full colour. The lion occupies the central field, its detailed mane richly textured, surrounded by lush foreground grasses and tropical vegetation including flowering plants and shrubs. Acacia trees and conifers are visible in the middle ground beneath a turbulent sky illuminated by fiery orange and deep storm-grey clouds. The series title WILD ESSENCE appears in bold raised gilt lettering along the lower portion of the field. |

| Additional information |
Liberia has operated as a vehicle for the modern commemorative coin trade since the 1990s, issuing pieces with no meaningful domestic circulation — produced entirely for the collector market through foreign minting arrangements, typically in Europe. The gilded silver format here follows an industry pattern where gold plating on fine silver allows issuers to price pieces above bullion while avoiding the cost of solid gold production.
A 2026 date places this outside any pressing historical occasion tied to Liberia itself.
