| Obverse description | The central field bears the coat of arms of Liberia, depicting a sailing ship at sea beneath a palm tree and a rising sun, with a dove in flight above, all within a shield surmounted by a scroll bearing the national motto 'THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE'. The date '1995' is divided across the lower portion of the shield, flanked by '19' and '95'. The outer legend 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA' curves along the upper rim, while the lower rim carries the inscriptions 'ONE OUNCE', '10 DOLLARS', and 'FINE SILVER'. A small Pobjoy Mint privy mark appears to the lower left of the shield. |

| Additional information |
Liberia's early 1990s commemorative silver program was a deliberate revenue operation — the coins were designed for foreign collector markets, not domestic circulation, and were struck in quantities calibrated to numismatic demand rather than any monetary need. Churchill is among the most heavily commemorated figures in this genre, appearing on issues from dozens of nations with no historical connection to him whatsoever.
KM#145 was produced by the Pobjoy Mint on behalf of the Liberian government.
