| Obverse description | Central field displays the Liberian Coat of Arms, featuring a shield with a sailing ship at sea, a palm tree, a rising sun, and a plough with a spade, surmounted by a dove in flight; a scroll below bears the legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA. A rectangular cartouche within the arms carries the national motto THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE. The denomination 100 DOLLARS appears in large letters along the lower periphery, accompanied by the fineness inscription 900/1000 FINE GOLD in the lower field. The commemorative legend REDEMPTION DAY - FIFTH ANNIVERSARY · 1980 - 1985 curves along the upper border in raised letters, with a beaded inner rim encircling the design. |

| Reverse description | A finely detailed leopard is depicted in a stalking posture, prowling along a naturalistic tree branch that extends diagonally across the field, rendered with bold relief and textured spotted coat. The legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA curves along the upper periphery in raised capital letters, separated from the design by a beaded inner rim. The lower field and exergue are left uncluttered, allowing the powerful feline figure to dominate the composition. The overall design is executed in the high-relief proof style characteristic of Franklin Mint issues of this period. |
