| Beschrijving keerzijde | A high-relief commemorative scene depicts multiple military figures from the American Revolutionary War period in contemporary uniforms, rendered in a dynamic group composition suggestive of the surrender at Yorktown in 1781. Prominent busts of officers are shown in the upper portion of the design, with additional soldiers and battle activity depicted in the lower field. The legend 'BATTLE OF YORKTOWN' arcs along the upper periphery in raised lettering. The series title 'AMERICA AT WAR' is inscribed along the lower centre of the design, with the denomination '20 DOLLARS' appearing below along the bottom rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's commemorative dollar series of the early 2000s was a sprawling commercial operation aimed squarely at the international collector market, with dozens of themes licensed through European distributors — the Battle of Yorktown issue being one of many American historical subjects that had no particular connection to Liberian history or monetary policy. The coins circulated nowhere.
Yorktown itself ended on October 19, 1781, when Cornwallis — claiming illness — sent Brigadier O'Hara to surrender his sword in his place.
