Obverse description The national coat of arms of Liberia occupies the central field, depicting a sailing ship approaching a shore with a rising sun, a palm tree, a dove in flight, and a plow, all enclosed within a decorative shield. A scrolled ribbon below the shield bears the legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA, while the national motto THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE arcs across the upper interior of the arms. The outer legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA runs along the upper rim, with the date divided as 20 and 00 flanking the arms in the lower field. A dentilated border encircles the entire design.

Reverse description A finely detailed three-masted square-rigged sailing vessel, identified as H.M.S. Bounty, is depicted under full sail at sea, rendered with intricate rigging, furled and set sails, and a carved hull riding stylized waves. Several scattered clouds appear in the open field to either side of the masts, conveying a sense of open ocean. The denomination $20 and the vessel's name BOUNTY arc along the upper rim in bold raised lettering, completing the composition against a deeply mirrored proof field.
