| Reverse description | A draped bust of the Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca is depicted in high relief at center, shown bearded and wearing a decorated headband and military cloak, his gaze directed slightly to the left. In the background, a panoramic scene of war elephants with mounted riders evokes his famous Alpine campaign against Rome. The denomination $20 appears to the left of the bust. The legend HANNIBAL is inscribed in bold letters along the upper border, and the entire central device is framed by an ornate scrollwork border with pellet accents. The mint mark FM and designer's initials DE appear discreetly in the lower field. |
