| Reverse description | The reverse features a bold, stylized composite design centered on a large numeral '2' overlapping with a '000', together forming the year 2000, dominating the central field. Surrounding this central motif are symbolic vignettes representing different world cultures and numerological systems: a raised hand, ancient counting symbols, the Greek letters phi (ΦΦ), a watchful eye, and the abbreviation MM for the new millennium. The silver content is indicated in the lower central field by the inscription '1oz Ag .999'. The legend MILLENNIUM curves along the upper border, while TWENTY DOLLARS arcs along the lower periphery, all within a dotted inner border. |

| Additional information |
Liberia's late-1990s commemorative program was prolific to the point of controversy — the Central Bank authorized dozens of silver issues aimed squarely at the collector market, with no serious intention of circulation. Many were struck by foreign minting contractors, primarily in South Korea and China, and distributed through coin dealers rather than through any domestic banking infrastructure. KM#508 is one of several millennium-themed issues from this run.
