| Obverse description | The central field features the shield-shaped coat of arms of the Republic of Liberia, depicting a sailing ship at sea, a palm tree, and a rising sun, surmounted by a scroll inscribed THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE, with a dove above and a cannon and plow below. The shield is flanked by the date, with '20' to the left and '01' to the right. The circular legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs around the upper portion of the coin, while a ribbon below the arms repeats REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA. A reeded inner border frames the design. |

A stand of coniferous trees rises behind the locomotive, evoking a winter or northern landscape setting. The series legend LEGENDS OF THE RAILS - ALCO'S BO' BO' arcs around the upper field in two lines, and the denomination 20 DOLLARS is inscribed at the bottom of the field. |
