| Reverse description | A detailed high-relief portrait bust of a robed ecclesiastical or monastic figure is depicted in left-facing profile in the lower central field, gazing upward. Behind and above the figure rises a panoramic cityscape of iconic German Gothic and Romanesque architecture, prominently featuring the domed octagonal Palatine Chapel of Aachen Cathedral to the left and the towering twin spires of Cologne Cathedral to the right, with additional steeples and rooftops filling the mid-ground. The legend DEUTSCHLAND arcs along the upper rim, and the denomination 20 DOLLARS appears in the lower exergue. |

| Additional information |
Liberia issued a flood of foreign-subject silver dollars around the turn of the millennium, most produced by the Bavarian State Mint or private German minting houses under contract. These were collector pieces with no meaningful domestic circulation — Liberia's actual economy ran on U.S. dollars.
The face value is purely nominal, assigned to satisfy legal-tender formalities required for export licensing.
