| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse depicts a detailed high-relief scene commemorating the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation of 1863, showing a group of approximately nine figures — some seated around a table, others standing — engaged in the historic signing ceremony beneath a chandelier. The denomination '$20' appears in the lower field. The curved legend 'HISTORY OF AMERICA · EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION' arcs around the upper and right periphery, with the date '1863' positioned vertically along the lower right, all rendered in crisp proof-quality relief against a frosted field. |

The Emancipation Proclamation of January 1, 1863 applied only to enslaved people in Confederate-held states — it explicitly exempted the border states and Union-controlled portions of the South. Liberia's connection to the subject is direct: the republic was founded in 1822 largely through the efforts of the American Colonization Society as a resettlement destination for freed American slaves, and Monrovia itself is named for President James Monroe.
The Central Bank of Liberia issued a substantial number of commemorative silver pieces in the early 2000s under licensing arrangements with foreign minting agencies, most struck in limited quantities for the collector market rather than circulation.
