| Obverse description | Effigy of Queen Elizabeth II facing right, rendered in the fourth definitive portrait by Ian Rank-Broadley, showing the Queen with a diademed and elaborately curled coiffure, wearing a light draped neckline. The legend 'BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS' arcs along the upper left rim, 'QUEEN ELIZABETH II' along the upper right rim, and the date '2004' appears at the lower right, with the engraver's initials 'IRB' incorporated beneath the portrait truncation. The finely detailed proof field provides a deep mirror finish contrasting with the frosted relief of the effigy. |

| Reverse description | Central gold-plated medallion depicting a winged allegorical figure of Victory, robed and holding a laurel branch and a staff, riding a chariot drawn by two winged horses in dynamic motion, evoking the classical imagery of the ancient Olympic Games. Decorative foliate scrollwork frames the central medallion at left and right, while the Greek inscription 'ΟΛΥΜΠΙΑΚΟΙ ΑΓΩΝΕΣ' appears within the medallion field alongside additional Greek text referencing the history of the Games. The legend 'XXVIII OLYMPIC GAMES' arcs along the upper rim in bold letters, the denomination '$20' is inscribed at the base, and the Pobjoy Mint mark 'PM' appears at lower right. The overall design combines a deeply struck proof finish with selective gold plating on the central motif, creating a vivid contrast with the surrounding silver surfaces. |
