| Beschrijving voorzijde | The central field features the full coat of arms of the Republic of Liberia, depicting a three-masted sailing vessel approaching shore, a palm tree, a rising sun, a dove in flight, a plow, and a shovel, all enclosed within a shield flanked by crossed cannon and anchor. A ribbon above the shield bears the national motto 'THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE', while a lower ribbon reads 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA'. The date '2000' is inscribed in the field, divided by the arms to the left and right. The outer legend 'REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA' arcs along the upper rim, and the denomination '20 DOLLARS' appears in the lower exergue. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's commemorative dollar series of the late 1990s and early 2000s was a frank revenue operation — the country was deep in the economic collapse that accompanied the tail end of Charles Taylor's rise to power, and licensing foreign leaders' likenesses for export-market collector coins was a reliable source of hard currency. Ford was an obvious candidate: unelected to either the presidency or vice presidency, his pardon of Nixon made him one of the most politically consequential figures of the 1970s, and his administration remains under-commemorated by the U.S. Mint itself.
