| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a group of five aviators in military uniform standing together in a heroic commemorative composition, rendered in high relief against a mirror-like field. Below the figural group, a banner cartouche bears the inscription AMERICA AT WAR. The legend DOOLITTLE RAID arcs prominently along the upper rim, while the denomination 20 DOLLARS is inscribed along the lower rim. The scene commemorates the April 1942 bombing raid on Tokyo led by Lieutenant Colonel James H. Doolittle, the first Allied air operation to strike the Japanese home islands during World War II. |
