| Beschrijving voorzijde | The Liberian coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a sailing ship on the sea, a dove in flight, a palm tree, and a rising sun, all beneath a scroll bearing the national motto THE LOVE OF LIBERTY BROUGHT US HERE. The date is split to either side of the shield, with 20 to the left and 00 to the right. The outer legend REPUBLIC OF LIBERIA arcs along the upper periphery, while the denomination 20 DOLLARS appears in the lower field. A beaded border runs along the coin's inner rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Liberia's late-1990s and early-2000s commemorative program was one of the most prolific — and commercially cynical — in the history of modern numismatics. Dozens of foreign minting houses, primarily in Germany and China, produced hundreds of silver issues nominally denominated in Liberian dollars for a country whose own citizens had largely abandoned the currency. These pieces were sold almost entirely to Western collectors through mail-order dealers, never circulating in Liberia at all.
Adams remains one of the few U.S. presidents never to appear on a circulating American coin or banknote.
