Beschrijving voorzijde The copper-nickel centre features the Jamaican coat of arms prominently in the lower field, comprising a shield quartered with five pineapples, supported by two Taino figures, and surmounted by a crocodile atop a royal helmet with mantling; a scroll bearing the national motto is rendered in relief below the shield. The large numeral '20' appears in the upper portion of the centre field above the arms. The nickel brass outer ring carries the legend 'JAMAICA' arcing across the upper periphery and 'TWENTY DOLLARS' along the lower periphery, both incuse-struck in bold capital letters.

Beschrijving keerzijde The copper-nickel centre displays a forward-facing bust portrait of Marcus Mosiah Garvey, Jamaica's pre-eminent National Hero, rendered in high relief with fine facial detail including a short beard and suit collar. The portrait is contained within a raised inner border separating it from the nickel brass outer ring. The circumferential legend 'THE RT. EXCELLENT MARCUS GARVEY NATIONAL HERO' arcs around the upper and lateral periphery of the outer ring, while the date '2006' appears at the base of the ring below the portrait.

Aanvullende informatie

Jamaica introduced bimetallic coinage for the twenty-dollar denomination in 2000, part of a broader rationalisation of the island's coin series as the dollar's purchasing power continued to erode through the late 1990s. The non-magnetic specification distinguishes this issue from a later variant struck in steel-core planchets — a distinction that trips up collectors working without a magnet on hand.
